Howdy, partner!

What you see here began as a series of comedy-centric stories with the concept of an alicorn-ascended Princess Applejack trying to change a mismanaged Equestria for the better by humorously interacting with the other, quite lazy, princesses.

Not to mention a whole bunch of Changelings with nothing better to do but cause mischief.


The whole thing was set in motion by this gem:

~~~~~

>So, wait, why am Ah' a princess again?

>Because you seem to be the only goddamn one of those ponies who gets that a Princess need to do actual work regarding maintenance of the kingdom. You know how much city planning or trade negotiations Twilight or Luna have done? Fucking nothing. Everyone is obsessed with the world ending threats they think I should fight, but the minute I point out the free health care I have to work to maintain everyone goes quiet. And don't even get me started on Cadence, who can't even manage a basic meeting with the Equestrian Games representative. Fucking annoying. Go do actual princess stuff, because apparently everyone else got the pamphlets mixed up or something and thinks "Princess" means "Beat cop."

~~~~~

Are you feeling creative? Try your hand at writing a story! No contribution is too small and we love having new folks around.

If you're more artistically inclined give a drawing or sketch a shot. Don't fret too much; it doesn't have to be fancy and we appreciate artwork a lot.

If that isn't your style either, writers always need feedback. So tell us what you liked - and what you didn't - to help us improve.

If you are unsure about anything, do not be afraid to ask. We will gladly bring you up-to-date or explain anything you feel is unclear.

>Welcome to Late Night /pa/ with your host Pinkie Pie! It's during this time that content doesn't matter, and we take a break from our regular story to test out fighting possibilities in a safe place!

"Why am Ah at your dreamhouse?"

>Because we have writers who want to give you some action and I'm here to be your test dummy! We're going to see what you can do!

"...what?"

>...You've been getting fat, sitting. Fight me.

"What? No, Ah'm not."

>Prove it. Move your booty and show me you can move those legs. Don't worry, I'll hold back for you.

"...alright, if that's what ya want."
Shakes off her horseshoes which drop off with a heavy thunk.

>...weighted horseshoes?

"Eeeyup..."
Shakes her wings and more weights fall.
"Any rules?"

>Nope.

AJ cracks her neck.
"Good."
Digs into the floor and launches herself, delivering a devastating headbutt into Pinkie crashing her through the gingerbread wall and into the jello pool.
"How's that?"

>Yeah...that was a good hit...but how about this?
Pinkie rushes in and fires off rapid punches to AJ's face.
>ATATATATATA-
AJ throws her hooves up to block the unrelenting blows and the hits Pinkie with a high kick, following up with a drop kick. She spins, hitting Pinkie's side with her tail.
*CRACK*

"Are you all right, sugarcube?"

>Cracked a rib. No biggie...do you have something in your tail?

"Oh whoops."
Drops a weight from her tail.
"Sorry 'bout that."

>It's okay. We're showcasing you! Now Treekicker, think fast!
Throws a tree trunk.

"Gah!"
Instantly kicks it back to Pinkie's face.
"...Okay, this is too far."

>Trees...don't hit back...

"Yer covered in splinters. We're stopping."

>But the lasso demonstrations!

"Ah'm not going to demonstrate on you."

>Okay, then can you pick me up and take me to the bathhouse? I need some chocolate healing.

"But...you know what? Ah'm going to assume you know what you're doing."
Puts Pinkie on her back.

'Sunset Shimmer'
[Chitania]

>Well hello my dear Applejack, I did not know you would be back

"Hey howdy, Zecora! How y'all been doing recently- Oh, this here's mah student-in-sorts, Sunset Shimmer"

'Hello, I admit I haven't heard too much about you, only snippets from Twilight now and then, you do herbology and potions, right?'

>That is true, potions are my craft, and I am amazed that when told, you had not laughed

'Oh, no, It's a genuine science and everything, I'm sure of it, I'm sure ther'es some perfectly rational potion that can.... y'know, dezombiefy a pony or such, ahaha...hah..ha

>"..."

'I'll drop it'

"Ah' know, s'rough, but aaanyway Zecora, what're y'all doin'?"

>Perusing my usual stock and trade, the ghosts are quite a "drawn out" escapade

"Ah-ha, Ah' take it running around some spooky spectres gets a lil' tiring after a while '?"

'Wait, you said....Ghosts?'

[What]

>...Are we not going to talk about the elephant in the room? Or should I make myself scarce, I have to see a mare about a swimming costume-"

[What is this rhyming pony talking about ghosts?]

"Uhhhh, AQCUAINTANCES! Zecora, meet Chitania; changeling queen, Chitania, meet Zecora, local zebra"

[Zebra? Ehh, you don't look much different from the rest of 'em]

>That's racist

[Hey you stopped rhy-]

'Yeah, that's kinda racist'

"Different folks don't much like bein' called egregiously similar t' each other, ya' know"

[Whatever]

'Ugggh, I really-FINE, Zecora! That IS all this about ghosts and such?'

>It's rather bothersome to talk at lenght about, we've had far too much time to give an explanation much clout. Our little gang has been giving poor souls their rest, and 29 has been doing his very best

"Well, that sounds good for him, glad to hear he ain't screwin' around with the mares, where's he off to now anyway?"

[Some place far away from here I hope...]

>He's come back from special "tutoring", and is around, he may want to make a special appearance in the town.

"Huh, for a brief moment ah' was happy fer him, but now that old nigglin' pain in my left hoof is actin' up again, that can't be a good sign..."

'Okay we really need to change the subject, you got a looot of ingredients in those bags. I can actually prattle off a bunch of names of those real quick, those are Manihot esculenta, thats a jar of Hyssop Herb stems, and a bunch of Pogostemon cablin, whatcha making?'

>...You words do confuse me, but I must answer truly, this potion I make is awfully specific in outcomes and needs, and it cannot be completed with just a hoofull of seeds, in short, it's do with a Moose and a surgeon, all I need is just some hair from a virgin


"['...']"

'Wellll, I did ask'

"..This herbo-stuff really is specific, ain't it?

>I've been perusing the town If you haven't already guessed, I just need one "volunteer" and I'll easily handle the rest

'No dice here, sorry'

>Quick on denial, I certainly see, so how about you? Oh giant quee-

"I wouldn't-"

STOMP STOMP STOMP stomp stomp stomp stomp....

>...Ah

"...waaaait..."

"So y'all gon' gawk at me now huh?"

"Yeahsmahshmhmgmblm..."

'...So you've-'

"What"

'Ok ok, i know it's private but I just never-'

"What, ya think ah' never found any use fer THESE before ah' got two wings an' a horn ticker-taped onto me?"

"Fair point."

Guy writing the chryssi/spike thing here.

One thing I want to do is develop his arsenal, themed around typical FPS loadouts from days of yore(the 1990s) and the elements of harmony.

Charity and Crackerjack-2 are a good start, and I added in benificence so far, but herein lies the problem:naming the damn things.

So when I say a typical loadout this is what comes to my mind:

Pistol: Charity

Shotgun: Crackerjack-2

Automatic Rifle: TBD probably will theme on Twili since she gave him an AK in that one NC. may be more of a heavy automatic than just a standard rifle.

Sniper Rifle: Kinda Blueblood's thing

Grenade Launcher: Benficence

Flamethrower:...Him. He's pretty much biologically this.

Rocket launcher: DT's got that on lock.

Exotic: Coming Soon.

As far as naming goes Well:

Generosity:Charity
Kindness: beneficence
Magic: Thaumaturgy
Loyalty: Faith or faithful or faithfullness or something like that
Laughter: Ebuliance
Honesty:...crackerjack-2

It's not perfect.

More importantly, I seem to tend to high falutin' names (not that it is easy to find synonyms for a lot of these things that feel right. How I wound up with 'beneficence' in the first place.)

I'm wondering if anyone else can think of better words to be used for the names while staying within the theme.

On the other hand these are suppossed to be lovingly crafted personal weapons which remind him of his friends so maybe ridiculous names are fine.

Lastly, I need one more weapon. I have ideas for an exotic and an automatic, but I still need one more to round out the six. A melee weapon is all that comes to mind as another standard FPS armament however, and I'm not sure what that would be that would be good enough.

Thoughts?
>>
>>25391981
Fraid I can't help you there, not really interested in Spike's weapons and I suck at naming stuff.
>>
>>25391981
>what that would be that would be good enough.

Good enough for what?

Not gonna lie, this seems like just piling stuff on to him, but if you just want to give him a standard FPS weapon that has a connection to someone he knows, a knife.

Like 77.

Ok writer of the AJ/Zecora whatever.

What did I do wrong this time?
>>
>>25392108
What do you mean? Reaction seemed fine except for one guy not liking Aj being so cavalier about her sex life and one guy feeling like it was a little forced.

Not him, but I get where he's coming from. It's very obvious by how Zecora was used that this was all setup just to have Aj be like "Sex? Yeah Ah've had it and it's great and HAW iffin' ya' thought I'd be any different." Not really much of a punchline, just more of a character bit.

Aside from that, what's the issue? Seems just a matter of some thinking this didn't quite fit AJ, like said here>>25389850

Is something else wrong here?
>>
>>25392108
Made AJ sound like she used to be/still is super casual about sex which seems out of character for a mare who is all about family (which sex tends to produce) and has spent most of her life either working to keep the farm afloat/raising her sister and then working on fixing the entire nation?

Doesn't seem the type to just jump in and out of bed like it's no big thing.
>>
>>25392108
This guy>>25389785 here, just didn't seem like AJ at all.

Like I said, I'm not gonna fight you on it or anything, still canon just fine to me if that's how it is, but it doesn't really feel natural and it really doesn't read like AJ at all, personally. It very much feels like a 'I want AJ to be casual about sex' thing, and not at all like a casual character trait, and as a result I really didn't end up liking the story at all.

But hey, no big and no need to feel worried.

Well, then the 77 knife fits.

77 is important to Spike as one of his A-team, one of the ones he fought with and formed his tight gunclub circle with.
The knife is is important to 77 in that it represents not giving up and not giving in to despair.
It would be special to both Spike and 77 in that it represents that even if you're just down to a pointy thing on the end of a stick, you're not dead till you're dead, and not to give up. The guns can run out of ammo, that can't. Even if he's down to brass tacks, he's still fighting.

That fit?

>>25392064
It's not necessarily just piling stuff on. Remember when DT started carrying weapons for the others? She personally doesn't use them, she just brought something for them in case they need it. I think that's a big step in her character, so him doing it too, doesn't necessarily have to be all about just how cool he looks. It can be a character thing, not a woohoo I'm so awesome thing.
>>
>>25392906
Hey, takes all kinds. It's certainly a unique pairing if nothing else, certainly not one of the more normal groups. He makes it work.
>>
>>25393212
That does fit...might be good to have 77 join in this way, but I was mostly thinking of the main 6 for this. If it was expanded out I could see Blueblood providing him the sniper, or DT leaving him Sexy in her will. Could even throw shiny or cele in there with something. Mostly all for sentimental rather than practical reasons.

>>25393314
I honestly always think of it more as a painter with his many brushes. You need all different kinds to make art.

Having him carry an arsenal to pass out to others is not a bad idea though what with the hammer space.

First things first though: a gag
>>
>>25392508
Am I the only one wondering where 13 is?
>>
>>25393746
I think EVERYONE is wondering where she is.
>>
>>25390257
So who's more broken here?

I feel like everybody is a little... just some more than others.
>>
>>25393746
It is kinda odd she just vanished, isn't it? Chitty isn't even wondering where she is.

How is it she is more unsettling then chrysalis when she pulls this...
>>
>>25393947
Because by this point, we've got a handle on Chrysalis, we know what she's capable of, what she's like, who she likes and just how far she's willing to go.

Not so much for 13.

The unknown is always the scariest.

>Welcome to Late Night /pa/ with your host Pinkie Pie! It's during this time that content doesn't matter, and the real action begins!

"Okay we're in the bathroom. You want me to set you down in the chocolate bath?"

>Yup, I never established rules about getting hurt, so I can say chocolate heals you in dreams and then act like it doesn't later. Consistency is overrated.

"..."

>Just put me in the chocolate.

"Alright..."
Puts Pinkie in chocolate.
"Ah guess Ah'll be going now."

>Wait, join me. I punched you too. It's only fair. In fact, I insist. My dreamhouse, my rules.

"...hard to argue that Ah guess."
Submerges herself in chocolate.
"...huh well Ah'll be. Ah'm feeling better already."

>Told ya. Can you massage my back? You've got those strong hooves.

"Are you sure though? Ah don't know mah own strength sometimes."

>I trust you.
AJ starts massaging Pinkie's back.
>Ahhh...that's it...I can really feel it...Mmmph......let me return the favor.

"What?"

>It'd be rude of me not to massage you too.

"Um...Ah guess...mah back's fine though."

>Then let me massage your legs.

"o-oh"

>Hey, you've got a really nice tush.

"Uh, that's not exactly mah legs."

>Whoops...sorry. I can't see under the chocolate.

"You know, you're probably going to get diabetes one day with all this unhealthy-"
Pinkie licks her cheek.
"What was that for?"

>You've got chocolate on your face.

"We're in a chocolate bath. We're covered in it."

>Don't make this weird AJ. I just want to be close to you.
Put her hoof over AJ's shoulder.
>Sometimes it feels like we never hang out as much any more. Let me stay close for a bit. Plus I get worried about you some times. Have some fun AJ. Live a little.

"Awww...Ah suppose there's no harm in this."
Licks Pinkie's cheek.
"...you actually taste like strawberry and chocolate...why?"

Pinkie looks to the viewers.
>And that's how you get chicks to lick you, Pinkie Pie style.

"Welcome welcome welcome. A fine welcome to you"
Pinkie puts a party hat on Chitania. Chitania looks to see where she went.

"Welcome welcome welcome Ah say how do you do?"
Pinkie comes around the other side and blows a party blower.

"Welcome welcome welcome Ah say hip hip hurray"
Pinkie tosses glitter from above.

"Welcome welcome welcome. To Ponyville today~"
Party Cannon fires off confetti. Cheering from an invisible crowd can be heard.

"???"
~~~

She didn't know how long she had wandered. Truthfully, she hadn't planned to stop, ever. It was only when her head hit a tree and she could not even bring herself up enough to raise her head to see which way she would have to go to walk around that she gave up, and stopped digging scrapes in the dirt in a fruitless attempt to go forwards.

Defeated, she was content to lean on the thing for support, her eyes never raising up from the ground they pointed to, and which she felt kinship with.

>...Sorry, mom.

She slumped, her rear plopping hard to the ground in a fit of depression induced gravity.

>You're probably mad at me, wherever you are... sorry.

She remained there, alone, in the woods surrounded by nothing by emptiness of her head and her heart.

>...I suck-

"Finally! Last one!"

She was seized, quite roughly even, by a magic around her head. It yanked her back, causing her to flop to her back on the ground and forced to look up to the glaring sun behind the trees.

The world seemed to swirl for a second, and she could swear she heard rushing water and a touch of green along the edges of her vision, and then it was just over. That brief bout of severe dizziness, no doubt caused by the violent jerk, was gone.

"Huh... that's odd... What in the name of Love are you doing all the way out here? You need to stay with the Hive, you idiot!"

Her vision focused in after several long seconds, finally allowing her to look up at the slightly matured looking face that she had been forced to come to grips with over the last few months.

>...I uh... s-sorry. I just... needed some time off, Thirteen.

She huffed, shoving at her ever so slightly to coerce her into standing. Despite this, the changeling remained prone, due mostly to the fact that said shoving hoof felt about as strong as a particularly angry kitten.

"Well, then do it within earshot of the Hive! The Queen needs all of us to remain alive, that means you too!"

>Nothing was gonna happen.

1/5
>>
>>25399814

Whap!

Again, all the strength of a baby with a mean left hook, but the point was very much taken.

"That's what every idiot says before they die! You know what happens next?"

>...They die?

"That's right!"

>I don't know why you think that's a victory on your end, that's the only option you gave me-

"Enough! It's almost time to go, and I'm not leaving until you're with the rest of the hive."

>I don't have to-

"UP!"

As she said it, up she went. Her limbs moved on their own, wobbling uncertainly before forcing her upright, and tall.

>...Why did I do that?... uh... did you-

"You're a changeling, you've got defenses."

>Right, right...

"Are you done moping now? Get back to the Hive."

>...I need a bit longer.

She tried to slump down. Thirteen was having none of it.

"UP!"

As commanded, her limbs went straight, and she was tall once again.

>...the scary part is, I don't know if you're doing mind stuff or just really... forceful.

"The latter, I don't use mind magics all that often."

>I'll... take your word for it.

"So why exactly is making you act like your kitten just died?"

>...I know who my mom is...

The loudest, most sarcastic gasp to ever exist rang out through the woods.

"The. Horror."

>Pfft, you're one to talk!

A threating, angry tip of a hoof found itself buried ever so slightly in chitin that was much softer than expected, shoving the other changeling over ever so slightly even with just that minimal force.

>Oh, yeah! Real easy for you to say! Your mother is CHITANIA! Motherfucking CHITANIA! And oh! News flash! She wants you around! AND IS ALIVE! So sorry we all aren't happy running off from them, YOUR MAJESTY!

An equally angry, forceful hoof tried to shove off the one buried in her chest, to no avail.

"Don't call me that."

2/5
>>
>>25399822

>What, YOUR HIGHNESS, am I embarrassing you by speaking of your wonderful status with my lowly flake tongue? Oh, so sorry! I'll try to be more considerate in the future while watching you ride on the back of the strongest changeling on the planet, and I'll be sure to keep my mouth extra shut when you eventually ascend and become another Queen yourself! So sorry, PRINCESS-

"I said STOP."

Sure enough, she did. Her mouth closed of it's own accord, and she could say no more.

"I'm not a princess, I'm not an heir, you hear me!? I'm a drone in the hive of Queen Chrysalis, the end! She is my mother, and... and I'm not going to leave her again, but I'm not a princess, I'm not an heir, and I'm never going to be a Queen... never. This is who I am now, I'm doing this for my Hive now. I'm Thirteen... not who I used to be."

Whatever grip, had it been of fear or magic, released.

>...Why not? Why... why wouldn't you want to be a Queen? They're so powerful, and respected, and you can have your own hive and-

"And I don't WANT my own hive! I'm not a leader, and I never want to be! And I sure as fuck don't plan on e-..."

She had caught herself, just in the nick of time. Almost too late...

"...I'm not going to be a Queen, and I don't need to wish for my own hive. You-"

A crook on the end of a hole shot upwards, lodging slightly into the nose of the changeling trying to glare her down.

"-need to be more thankful that the Queen took you in, and doesn't care that you're a female."

>...I know I'm expendable, thank you.

"No, you're not. For some reason, you and me got lucky enough to serve a Queen who's not going to let us die for stupid reasons, like getting crushed by your newly resurrected mother, even if it would be better that way."

Something inside of her, something strong, told her to fight that and argue it. Despite this, she could not think of a single solitary reason it would be so, every memory said it was as she said, and nothing less.

>I guess...

3/5
>>
>>25399833

"Now, what is the problem here?"

>...She used to be awesome.

This time, when she slumped, the other let her.

>She used to be Titania! Titania, the one who would do battle with the Titan all the time-oh wow I just got that... but she used to be so cool! She used to be the only one who looked at Supersized Chitania and was like, yeah! I can take that! That's awesome! And she outlasted Chitania too, she was still alive after she got frozen... I think! And she... she was...

Slumped further, and further...

>So much better than me in every way... and now I don't even know her special technique. I don't remember her, I don't have anything from her, she's just... gone. And the worst part is, I don't know if our old Queen did it, if Chrysalis did it... or if she did it, because I was such a disappointment. I... I'm pretty much just a 'whoops' all around. Not strong like she was, not brave like she was, nothing... just the lowest ranking soldier. My mom's last legacy is... a dead last kid.

"...And?"

If she had slapped her, it would have hurt less, and that's before accounting with the other's tiny physical might.

>AND!?

"Yeah, and? Who cares what your Queen would have thought. Take it from someone who knows, sometimes Queens just plain don't know anything, even if they pretend to."

>But-

"No buts! Look, once upon a time, my Queen honestly looked at me and said "Someday, you are going to take over for me." Me. ME. Look at me! I can't do Titan Magic! Does it look like I would stand a chance even if I did? I'd get knocked over by a breeze!"

She couldn't argue that one.

"But she just kept insisting and insisting and insisting, and eventually I just realized she didn't know what was best, and I had to leave. You're your own ling, Forty One! You're not who you were, and you're not who you used to be! You've got to carve your own path now. Forget about the past, and just think about the future... with the Hive."

4/5
>>
>>25399842

It resonated her, deeply into her mind. She listened, hanging on every word, even when her voice went low.

"Besides, you don't want to be like your Queen anyway."

>What... what do you mean?

"Because your Queen... was always runner up, never the victor. You-"

She jabbed a hoof to her chest, at last just a bit of power seeping in.

"-need to be something bigger, for this hive. Don't worry about what she was, think about how much she would have wanted you to be... if she did. If she didn't want you to surpass her, then fuck her. You don't have to be who she wants you to be, Forty One, be who YOU want to be."

She remained speechless, didn't know what to say, or if she should say anything.

"But if you really want to know about her... see me later, when we've got some alone time and you're not on this trip. Who knows, maybe your old Queen's power will be of pretty good use to the Hive. Maybe you can be something even better than she was... but later."

She shoved, just a light one, on her shoulder, legs moving on their own accord as she began to walk back towards the others.

"Don't be who she wants you to be, Forty One... be who you need to be."

She slowed, just a bit, fighting instincts and her own limbs as she looked back to the more matured looking ling.

>...Thirteen?

"Yeah?"

>Do you... love your mom, really?

"...I wouldn't have left if I didn't, and I wouldn't have stayed if I didn't. Now MARCH."

She shoved again, but it was not needed. She moved, on her own accord, she moved.

"Be more, Forty One. Be bigger than she was."

The words shook through her like vibrations though a bell. The sun shined in her eyes, as at last, she walked with her head pointed up.

>...I want to be more...
>>
>>25399854
I dunno if I should feel motivated or scared
>>
>>25399891
Scared.

It's very clear she's in "FOR THE HIVE" mode, and is now up to full on mind-fucking possibly without even knowing it.

What did she mean by 'last one'? Did she mindfuck around with all the other lings?
>>
>>25399854
She kinda has a point, Titania sounds cool on paper but she was her eternal runner up, not a success like Chitty.

...Also her life wasn't non-stop horrible like Chitty. You know what? Do not try to be like Superbugs, their lives suck.

>>25400545

She doesn't have to do anything like that, she just has to bring down Chitania and they do the rest, because she's MOTHERFUCKING CHITANIA.

Are we sure this is what's going on?

13 has never struck me as 'villain' material. I mean sure the power is there, just not the personality/will/ego
>>
>>25400609
She very much does not seem to seek power, command or control, and actively fights obtaining more.

It's possible that, like 7, this is just well intention extremest, not villainy.
>>
>>25400609
I'm not getting a villain vibe from her at all, and she sure as hell doesn't have the go or selfish personality to pull this off in a negative fashion.

She might just be protecting her 'family'.
>>
>>25400609
Yeah, aren't we kinda jumping the gun here? She hasn't done anything villainous, or even mean. We're just assuming she brought Chitty down for a reason.

She came down to 'check' on the Hive. Well... maybe that's really just it? Maybe she really did just be like 'I want to make sure you're all okay and not being subtly manipulated', and she brought her mom in case that was the case? She'd be able to detect subtle stuff, with her crazy level mind powers, that Chrysalis might have missed being trusting. She might've just brought Chitty because, hey, something might've been wrong, and if there was then Chitty could handle them while she protected the hive, her mom would punch AJ in the face if she told her to.

Just saying. What, a changeling can't be the racist one all 'I don't trust you ponies!' after what happened to Chitty?

>Spike
‘Chrysalis’

The pair made their way down the oddly deserted corridor, being careful to conceal themselves as best they could despite the lack of resistance.

It felt wrong. Nearly every part of these tunnels were full of life. Horrendously deadly, utterly terrifying life it had to be admitted, but life nonetheless.

>This is weird…why would this part be empty?

‘A few possibilities, one nothing to eat.’

>Dunno about that, I mean there’s enough to eat in the rest of this cave system it got filled up right?

‘Two, they just never got down this far. Maybe this part is sealed from the rest?’

>I guess it’s possible…

‘Three-‘

>Is that light?

Looking ahead into the dark a faint glimmer was visible.

>C’mon!

As quickly as they could without throwing caution to the wind they moved toward the light, closer and closer until they emerged into a large chamber.

>Woah…it’s beautiful…

‘It is…nice, I guess.’

The ceiling of the chamber was covered in a dimly luminescent glow bathing the whole chamber in a weak teal light. Despite how faint it would normally seem, in these depths and with little other light around, it allowed them to see far more clearly than anywhere else in the system.
As they gazed around in wonder however, their reverie was quickly broken by a low menacing growl that resonated throughout the chamber.

>…what were you saying about three before?

‘Three…’

They turned toward the source of the noise only to see a massive glowing eye open and focus directly on them.

‘…they all got eaten.’

>…glorious.

Speed had been the most important thing at the start. Getting in, getting a hold of her, and then presumably the speed in which she was none-too-quietly stuffed into whatever bag, sack or other holding item they could get their hooves on that would accommodate a minor-alicorn sized pony. The speed in which they did this was most vital on their thoughts, several sections above other niggling questions such as if this was going to appear to be a kidnapping of some kind.

Speed had been the most vital.

So, perhaps that was why it was so odd, to themselves and those watching them run off at a breakneck pace, when they came to a sudden, very still, stop.

>...Eighteen?

"Shiny."

>Is... um... is there something off about her to you?

"There is."

>...Just to double check, it's not just me?

"It is not just you."

>Something is off.

"Something is very off."

They had conceded, subconsciously if not somewhat consciously, that they were going to be asked some questions they could not explain. They were prepared for this, but hoped that the concern on their faces would at least show to those present this was for good intentions.

This was going to be a lot harder with the look on their faces now.

They were not concerned.

They were very much something else.

Cadence's unmistakable voice.

'Oh no no, this was a terrible year, or so I've heard. Don't you have anything from the fourteenth moon around... oh, right, you were sealed up. Well, it tastes amazing, is what you need to know.'

She remained oblivious as they closed in, all her attention very much still on the shocked and stuttering wine salesmare in front of her. So focused, she barely had any time to hear them coming in before two hooves, in perfect unison, grabbed hold of her shoulders and spun around that pretty, pink, unmistakable face.

Unmistakeable, except for quite a few, very subtle, differences. Very, very subtle.

Such as the fact that Cadence most certainly did not have blue eyes.

Too bad. From the moment the maid thing went from laughs to screams that bridge was burned.
>>
>>25409497
They're not going to be friends if people just keep writing Spitfire snub off RD over and over again.
>>
>>25400545
it is 13, getting hurt was her special talent before she became a plot device and ascended to side character.
>>
>>25409497
I think the moment that the maid thing stretched on for longer than a single one-off gag, it was too late.

Like... how the fuck do you backpeddle from that? Comedy only works if it's either not something that will leave a lasting impact, or far more frequently we just cut off and never see the after-effects.

The moment we got to her cleaning her underwear, it was too late. Like... what, we just supposed to assume Spitfire was going to shrug that one off? Laugh about it? NOT be pissed? That's a very specific and vindictive thing that works just fine for a gag that isn't supposed to be between two people who will ever like each other, like a dean and a rowdy comedy teenage goofball, but not so much between someone you want to be friends.
>>
>>25409711
>was too late.
Dude?

We managed to make a mind raping, scheming, decietful, actual rapist, megalomainiac somehow forgiven.

Surely this Spitfire shit is no hard task
>>
>>25409497
>From the moment the maid thing went from laughs to screams

What, you mean when she had her CLEAN HER UNDERWEAR WITH HER TONGUE?

Yeah, minute we reached that point, we pretty much fucked over any chance of these two even tolerating each other. It's one thing to take Spitty's job, it's one thing to make her a maid, it's one thing to make her Dash's bitch, but damn, how do you get out of THAT hole? What could Dash POSSIBLY do to calm Spitfire enough to even give her the briefest of shots? What could she possibly offer her? "Sorry?" Actually better question...

>>25409336
Why?

We clearly set this up so Spitfire will have nothing but hate for Dash with the "Kicks her out/makes her a maid/FORCES HER TO LET 56 EAT OFF HER" thing. That was the comedy, Dash does really really horrible things to Spitfire, but Spitty never gets back at her. That was the whole maid joke. There was literally nothing else to that gag but "Dash comically humiliates Spitfire in increasingly horrible ways".

So, why try to turn it back? I say just own it. If you wanted them to be friends, we should've done SOMETHING during the maid-gags, but at this point? Come on. Let's just have fun with it.
>>
>>25409769
>Surely this Spitfire shit is no hard task

Hate to be the one to say it, but it kinda isn't, it's just that if we do the obvious thing to fix it, we pretty much have to fuck over Dash hard and take away the Wonderbolt captaincy and give it back to Spitfire. That's pretty much the only sure way to do it.

See, with Chrysalis, we were allowed to break her, to shove her down, to hurt her, to dangle success in front of her with the God Mode thing and then not only snatch it away, but thwap her on the nose for going at it. We were allowed to have Chrysalis look like she was going to win and then blam, down she goes again and again.

We can fix the Spitfire thing, no problem, but first we've gotta be willing to take off the kids gloves and really ream Dash for what happened. I mean, seriously get back at her for that, because Dash really did go waayyyyyy beyond far with that stuff, and we just kept doing it.

If we can actually bring ourselves to knock down Dash and snatch her thing away from her, it can very easily be fixed. Buuuuttt... I don't see that happening.
>>
>>25409818_You

Or we can just do this>>25409773
>Come on. Let's just have fun with it.

I mean... why not? Like he said, whole premise of the maid gag was Dash shitting all over Spitfire. Why do bitter glaring instead of having Spitfire get back at her and hurt her in increasingly horrible ways? Have Spitfire get Diplomatic Immunity or something and just make Dash's life hell.

That would be way more fun/ny.
>>
>>25409833
I'll accept this. Want "Friends", but I'll gladly take "Spitfire is never-endingly out there to make every waking moment Dash has terrible in retribution."

I mean, setup works just fine, and it's not like we held back on the maid gag.

>>25409857
This attitude is what turns me off so much about the whole bolts storyline. Comedy made bitter drama and runaway with.

I mean all you are suggesting is doin the same thing essentially only with a change of who's on top. If the maid thing was so horrible, why would this be funny?
>>
>>25409833
For me, the answer is 2 words...Hate Sex.
If folks let their shipping juices flow, they'll think of something to patch things up....and more.
>>
>>25409942
Built-in sympathy for who is doing the hurting.

Eventually the maid thing got to the point where it's hard to internally 'adjust' to think
>Yeah, Spitfire totally deserves this and her not getting anything back at her is fine.
Because for all she did wrong, we piled on the comedy pain 1000 times.

But now?
>Well, if DASH thought it was so funny, let's see how she likes it!
It feels more just due to the fact that... well, this is what Dash did in her time. The storyline now has Spitfire as the one who was pushed down, humiliated beyond compare and then eventually left to wander away in shame, but now she's back baby!

It's a classic underdog tale of someone losing it all and then rising back to get revenge... with badgers, apparently, if that story is any indication.

Time for some revenge, comedy style!
>>
>>25409942
It was horrible to Spitfire, funny to us.
Just like everytime we pile shit on Bugbitch is funny but cruel to her.
But we don't like her as much as Spitfire so her never getting true comeuppance against her main opponent (Dash instead of AJ) and just taking it and having to make up with everyone for her faults (because remember Spitfire being a shit is how this started) won't fly as well.

Sorry to bring this up ten threads later but on the Chitty heart surgery story I just have to point out Twilight didn’t have much of a leg to stand on with her rant no matter how much you guys wanted to tell her off without consequence. Almost everyone wanted her dead and her interactions with ponies since Shiny let her go have not swayed her.
>She has not started a single fight since she razed…well Equestria
>of the six fights she has been in they have either tried to kill her while she was minding her own business (Spike, Pennydrop, Mr.Popcorn, accidentally Pommel), or was asked to come in (Cordy & Vary).
>Just about everyone (including Twilight) vowed vengeance or considered her irredeemable.
>She didn’t get attacked post Varry because they were more worried about Sunset and too weak in their own right to attack sans Celestia who was understanding of the 13 situation and turned her attention to Sunset
>Twilight’s whole argument is “just because one group of ponies tried to kill you and did kill your hive after you helped them doesn’t mean we would have, you should have trusted us completely. The ponies who collectively have tried to kill you 2 times, 3 if you count Sunset. And we don’t trust you as far as we can throw you so I was going to kill you if I thought you were lying, but shame on you for not trusting us.”
It just bothers me sometimes when characters get on a high horse and say get over it when they clearly couldn’t themselves. In that same argument Twilight is still angry at herself for letting Chitty out, something we thought she got a whole arc over to try to get over it and apparently couldn’t, which is why she was okay with killing herself. So how does she get to say that Chitty should get over her trust issues that (thanks to freezing) happened only hours before Twilight’s own issues she refuses to let go
I’m happy about the state of things now don’t get me wrong I just didn’t like the turn we took to get there initially
>>
>>25412584
Slight correction, she was only ok with putting herself on the line, not killing herself. She just didn't want anybody else's life in danger because of her mistake, because she accepts it was her fault. She didn't want to die, she was just ready to since this was the only way to make sure her friends were safe.

She is over it, that was about protecting their lives, not a Martyr situation.

Also, you glossed over the fact that during the zombie invasion she was infiltrating the Royals of the Griffins. She wasn't exactly being nice
>>
>>25412695
She was infiltrating them because they want her head and she wanted information without wrecking the place (which I don't even think she got because of AJ and Arana). That seems considerate. She was a bitch about it when it came to defending them. I said she was minding her business not that she became Fluttershy.
>>
>>25412584
>>25412695
Bigger correction, Twilight never vowed vengeance or called her irredeemable. In fact, she was the one who tried convincing her after the fact, including on the train during the fight. She wasn't even angry when she was in the hospital.

This particular case was because she put bombs around their necks. That's not exactly thinking her irredeemable, thats you put a bomb around my neck. Twilight repeatedly stated that she thought she could be redeemed, and that was even a plot point when she praised her brother who was thinking murder murder murder murder murder.

Also the Varry point is just wrong, shiny walk right up to her after the fight and actually forgave her and all that mess. He cleared all her crimes, just because. He made a show of it with 13, but it was a very sarcastic show that absolutely nobody would have thought was genuine. Shiny didn't take any damage during the fight, he could have hurt her.
>>
>>25412730
Incorrect, she was there specifically to steal their poisons, and had said that was her whole plan. She plans to use those poisons to in her never ending advancement. She didn't care that they wanted their her head, she just needed to know how to get to their poisons before she wrecked the place. She didn't even know where they were or how they were made. That's why she defended them when he made the offer at first.
>>
>>25412745
He may have taken no damage but I think their fuckoff laser.
>>25412761
>before she wrecked the place
she hasn't intentionally smashed buildings without someone aggroing her. She wouldn't destroy the place for no reason. She wanted in and out. She accepted the offer because the mission was compromised and this was the most peaceful way to do it. And She was very interested with a country not attacking her and rooming free, which is why she left She doesn't care about others wanting to hurt her no, she does like that she can be in the open to do as she pleases. It was the basis of most her interactions between cordy and sunset. We even had a thing where the M6 taunted her for not being able to attack and she didn't do shit.
>>
>>25412834

-fuckoff laser they would have been drained.
>>
>>25412584
Dude what? Twilight and Celly have been saying she could be a good guy since they found her diary. TwI even tried talking her down after Spike shot her, even though she knew it was useless.

And Twi-crazy was her guilt over her pursuit or science hurting others and her suspicious that caused her to doubt Shiny. Chitty was just the last one, the robot invasion did just as much damage as her. She was mad that Chitty threatened to blow up her friends and mentor with neckbombs, which is pretty reasonable when her brother was like "No, yeah, sure you're forgiven have fun wandering around free" a month ago. Every attack except for Pommel, which he proved was an accident caused by the WBs, happened before they forgave her. Of course Twi was like "how long do we have to let you walk around completely unchecked before it sinks in that we don't care about killing you anymore?"
>>
>>25412834
Cadence and chrysalis did the laser, he just offered a shield, which was backed by cadence. He was fine at the end of it. Energy wise and physically.

Kind of skipping over the fact that Chitty would have no way of knowing about the laser being connected to him anyway, or any reason to think it drained him, but never mind.
>>
>>25412855
I may have been blinded a bit by my anger at "the reason why you're and idiot" back and forth that happened.
>>25412892
I swore all three did the attack. I'm batting a pure zero tonight, again I am sorry.
>>
>>25412939
No no, it's actually good to bring up motivation like that. It makes for good discussion and makes for good reevaluation of characters. It worked in this particular scene because there's no way for old mega bug to get any retribution considering the states she was in, but that doesn't mean that trial it was totally in the right. Citty had some pretty good reasons for what she did, and a little reverse rant wouldn't have hurt, even if it didn't totally fit the situation. Her chest was open right then after all.

It's good to say stuff like that

Pretty much what I was thinking with this post. In the before time, oh yeah, silly pone wasn't quite so silly, but now I feel she's more... acclimated, used to how you run things as big as Canterlot and all the crap comes with it.

Primarily by stuffing yourself full of cake and helping your subjects along as best you can when they stumble.

He acknowledge quite quickly that him strangling the currently pink pony in the middle of the open like this would probably raise some questions. Uncomfortable questions. Questions that would be quite difficult to answer, and look very bad on tomorrows paper. He acknowledged that even if her true identity were to be revealed mid strangling, it would probably only bring up more unfortunate implications, and less answers.

Not to mention he did not want to see the look on Twilight's face when he saw her next. "Sorry, sis!" he would have to cry, "I strangled your friend. Whoops?"

Still, seeing her there with quite bluntly put the most flippant and uncaring smile he had ever seen just shy of Chrysalis on a usual day made this all quite tempting, even considering the context. Something about that smile was quite strangle worthy.

Or, in Eighteen's case, eye-laser worthy. No eye lasers had come, yet, but there was that sense that eyes lasers were most certainly on the table.

Time suddenly became a factor.

>Start explaining.

'Oh, whatever do you mean, darling?'

>Please stop calling me that when you look like her.

'Oh, alright.'

She shuffled him back, quite uncomfortably pushing him in the chest to do so, until he and her were far enough away for a 'private' conversation.

>What. The. Fuck.

The way her eyebrow cocked ever so slightly in a seemingly honest way to say 'really now?' without actually coming out and speaking it made those eye lasers seem far more tempting by the second.

'Are you really so bothered by someone looking like Cadence? Really now.'

There it was, he could see the sparks.

Not from Eighteen.

'Well! I'll have you know that I have been working with Twilight for quite a while now to create a, shall we call it, glamour?'

The way she giggled and flipped her hair implied there was supposed to be some sort of joke to that, but for the life of him he couldn't find the humor.

>>25416229

'With all this running about, it really became quite obvious there's a risk one of us will have to be in two places at once. So, rather than look to our... common associate for assistance, we decided to work on using the sophistication of pony magic instead!'

He saw, just out of the corner of his eye, that Eighteen's eye had twitched at the implications.

That she did not punch her in the face proved that mare was stronger than he would ever be.

>Why. The Fuck. Are you my wife.

'Oh, Shining! We're hardly that close yet.'

He hoped the flick on the corner of his eyes would impart to her the feelings bubbling up within him.

Alas, she laughed.

Thank goodness Eighteen could pick up the slack.

"Why are you Cadence, is what he's asking."

'Welll... we were doing a, shall we say, trial run? We decided to test out how easily this would allow us to blend into the crowd, and I must say it has been quite the success!... Yourself notwithstanding, of course. But, alas, no illusion magic can defeat the power of love, can it? So romantic!... Well, with the exception of-'

>Ahem.

'Oh! Right right right, so sorry, Shining. Don't mean to push on the sore spot.'

>And why, exactly, did you not feel the need to clue me or anyone else in on this?

She flicked her hair, just as she always did, not a care in the world.

'Well, Darling, It's hardly a trial run if you tell everyone about it. The entire point was to see if you or anyone else for that matter would notice!'

"But why Cadence? Why the most obvious, bright, noticeable pony in the whole damn Empire!? That's not how you infiltrate, Rarity, trust me! You should have picked a common looking pony if you wanted to disappear into the crowd!"

She let out a slight giggle, frivolously waving her hoof at the mere idea.

'Well! We're certainly not planning to use it for that. No such dreams of infiltrating lands here. But for a bigger point, well... it's not quite perfect. We haven't gotten it to the point where it removes, say, extraneous features? Such as, for instance... wings? Though admittedly that's not much of an issue at the moment. As I said, this was to see if we could fill in for one of us, not to sneak about like some dark little thing.'

Again, another twitch.

Again, a hoof just barely held in place.

'No no, this was to see if, indeed, one of us could be Celestia or Twilight or Applejack or whoever should the need arise.'

"So why didn't you pretend to be one of them?"

'Oh, a few reasons. First and foremost, we don't want to accidentally make it seem that Applejack abandoned her little walk even for a short time, we haven't gotten it to the point that it works for someone as tall as Celestia, but most importantly, well... we knew that the Empire would be more quick to drop it if they saw two Cadence's, wouldn't they? After all, she has so many replacements running about that if it were to go wrong and such an occurrence happened, they would laugh her off being on two sides of the Empire simultaneously. What with all her... assistants?'

While, internally, both of them knew with absolute certainty she had not meant it anything remotely close to that, the temptation to do something involving magic and lasers suddenly seemed appropriate.

'Still, we waited until we detected that Cadence left the Empire, and then decided to run our little experiment! With her gone, there was little chance anyone would make the connection. A bit of magic to tell if she re-enters in would give me plenty of time to hide away and get clear. Thus I've been free to roam about unchecked, and having a marvelous time if I do say so myself! The Empire really knows how to treat a princess.'

>This is not okay.

>>25416257

'Shining! I'm surprised at you. We thought, of anyone, you of all ponies would be the one most accepting of this little field test.'

>'We' meaning you and Twilight?

'Y-... well, she actually hasn't been available for a bit, so I'm being a touch naughty and doing this test without her, but I'm sure she'd say the same.'

"Rarity..."

She sighed, as dramatic as she had ever been and ten thousand times more.

'Oh, I suppose there was another reason besides the implications you would be quite alright with it. I have been doing a bit of research to see how we rulers are... 'seen', on the side. A recent even has left me with some questions... I must say, they think quite highly of Cadence in this place, don't they?'

The way her voice dipped just a single octave was, much like a rope lowering only a single inch towards a shark tank, just a touch too low for comfort.

'No matter where I go, I heard so much the same. They really do think that Cadence is the wondermare who can do anything and everything around here, don't they? Not even a one of them entertained the idea she was getting 'help'.'

Pointedly, and also quite unneeded, her eyes cut to the side.

'Not that it's my place to judge, of course. You should do what works, after all. Still... I did come to find it was a touch disingenuous.'

>You need to drop the spell, now.

His tone, as commanding as would befit a captain of the guard and a royal prince, left no room for argument.

Her laugh, as light and as impertinent as a wry fairy, left no room for caring.

'Well! I certainly can't do it here, who knows what they would think. And, of course, that would render this whole experiment moot, wouldn't it? They would be double checking us royals from here on out, and trust would certainly be shaken, wouldn't you agree? It would certainly make your own act much more difficult.'

As much as it pained them to admit it...

She was right.

>>25416264

'No no, we should most certainly all leave together, and I'll drop it away in the halls of the castle. It's not like we have to worry about the guard noticing. What's one more pretending to be their princess in the grand scheme of things? We could start a club if we wanted.'

It took a lot to choke down any bile at that one.

Not necessarily any of anger, either.

'Darling! I will take the Marediot, thank you quite kindly! Come come, Shining! Back to the castle we go!'

Yes, he was probably going to get some weird glances tomorrow, and maybe one or two brave souls asking why he had been glaring at his wife, but it was worth it.

'Off we go! Who knows, maybe if we're lucky this will lead us to something quite... devilish...'

Had the dome broken open?

It must have. That could be the only reason it suddenly felt as if ice had rained down upon them in waves.

Which was doubly odd... considering the green fire forming in front of them.

~I'm telling you, the wine from this place makes all those worries just...melt...~

Thus, after months of planning, endlessly meticulous scheduling, dedication, isolation of one party, and numerous near misses, at last.

At long long last, the citizens of the Empire got to see two Cadences at the same time, with mirrored gazes in horror and regret.

Who, Rarity? She's not being mean, she's being flippant and brazen about them switching in and out for Cadence.

If you're wondering why she being a bit... uh, much with that, you might want to remember her and Caddy's last talk(It was when Cadence told her off)

>Also why didn't the warning spell trigger?
Didn't it? Isn't that why they were like "Oh shit" and THEN the fire showed up?

It did trigger, I thought, it's just... teleport. Not something they thought they would have to worry about, as Cadence can't long-range teleport, but they didn't expect Chrysalis was bringing her in from right outside, Rarity would have assumed she went through the portal.
>>
>>25416709
>Also why didn't the warning spell trigger?

Because Chrysalis teleported her in. It probably did go off, but what good was it going to do? They were out in the snow one second, DIRECTLY in front of her the next.

Rarity wouldn't think she was out in the snow.

>>25416727
>>25416737
These two got it right, Rarity just knew
>Cadence has left the EMPIRE

And since Caddy isn't exactly one for frolicking in the snow, she would have assumed either train ride, or more likely portal-port. Her spell's intention would tell her if Cadence crossed the barrier or used the portal, since that way Cadence would be either on the edge and Rarity could escape, or she would be in the castle and have plenty of time to escape, she wouldn't account for Chrysalis dragging her in.

Nor did she account for Chrysalis needing a late night drink.

She can go anywhere she wants in Celly's and Caddy's borders, she just can't cross into Gryphon/Yak/Saddle Arabia and so on territory. She stays only in Canterlot because that is literally the only place she cares about thanks to the library, she's been everywhere else in her walk and it didn't help. She was totally allowed to leave when she picked up Sweet Note.

Only reason she left is because 13 wanted to go.

>It was when Cadence told her off
This seems a bit of a flimsy motivation for Rarity to go through all the trouble of setting so much up.
I don't know, I've read it twice and it's still coming off rather convoluted to me.

What's happening in the end? Who's being teleported, and why?

>>25416820
It doesn't help that you keep accenting how angry SA and 18 are in all 5 posts. It's a stark contrast to Rarity. I personally think it's also ooc for Rarity, because she's suppose to be more empathetic to other ponies and even if she wasn't, she's being really callous in not being able to pick up how blatantly mad the other two are. She has the eye for detail and should have gotten the hint.

>>25417287
Wait, you've read it twice and you still can't figure out what
>At long long last, the citizens of the Empire got to see two Cadences at the same time, with mirrored gazes in horror and regret.

Is referring to?

It's Cadence. Real Cadence. She and Chrysalis were out blowing shit up in the snow to relax, then Chrysalis comes in at the worst possible time.

> because she's suppose to be more empathetic to other ponies and even if she wasn't,

She most certainly is not, she's one of the hardest ones to pick up how someone is feeling when she gets lost in herself. Green Isn't Your Color proved this pretty hard. Then we have things like Made in Manehatten, and the Gala event with Blueblood and so on.

Rarity is hella oblivious to others most times, her discovering it is always played up as a revelation.
>>
>>25417351
And Applejack during the Cherry Jubilee episode(Can't remember the name), and being slow to pick up the obvious in Too Many Pinkie Pies, and Dash during the Equestrian Game tryouts(even TWILIGHT fucking picked up on that one faster than her).

Hell, you want to know how bad Rarity gets when she gets caught up in herself? Rewatch Dragonshy. Go on, watch what she does to the dragon. She literally remains oblivious to the dragon getting fucking pissed right in front of her until he slams his claw down. She is THAT thick when she has her mind on something else.

I don't know where this "Rarity is supposed to be more understanding of feelings" comes from, but the show disagrees.
>>
>>25417351
Rarity was helping all sorts of folks in Rarity takes Manehatten, like giving a scarf to someone who was cold, and giving flowers to someone she bumped into and grumpy, but like I said, even if she isn't, I still think she should have been able to pick up the anger and it comes off that she just doesn't care and the bile exacerbates it.

>Chrysalis comes in at the worst possible time.
Oh so it's Chrysalis' fault. I can live with that.

OOCO
>Spike
‘Chrysalis’

Running. Running was the only option now, 5 rounds to the dead center of the eye had been completely ineffective. A point blank follow up blast from Crackerjack only stunning the thing for a moment granting them a brief head start.

But not back the way they came. The first thing it did was maneuver between them and the only exit they knew.

<RAUGHHHHHH>

The creature was massive, the size of a house with one beaming orange eye and innumerable tentacles each ending in a maw of what might be claws or teeth which neither of the pair felt like pausing to assess academically as they snapped all around them while they dodged between the hellish things.

>Crap Crap Crap Crap Crap!

By some impossible trick of nature the damn thing seemed to be able to float through the air; advancing on them by using its superfluously numerous arms to pull itself along; grabbing hold of ground, ceiling or whatever else might be handy.

‘Not dying here. Not dying here. Not dying here…THERE!’

>You want to die over there!?

“Shut up and follow!”

The queen Dove between two pillars of living rock wide enough to accommodate her and the dragon, but too narrow for the bulk of the monstrosity, the dragon close behind her. As luck would have it, they found themselves against a wall of the cave, the closest thing to cover they had seen so far.

<RAUGHGHG!>

While it was unable fit itself through the pillars it could certainly send in its tentacles, grasping and snapping, flailing wildly while trying to get purchase on either of them to little avail, tentacles beginning to sneak in around the sides of the massive columns as well.

They did not have long.

>Ok, so…this is bad.

Spike raised his voice to be heard over the din.

‘Ya’ think!?’

>Occasionally.

‘…SERIOUSLY!?’

>What?
>>
>>25418511
‘Is this really the time!?’

His eyes went wide as he ducked and a grasping feeler shot just millimeters over the dragons head impacting the wall behind. Many more began to wrap around the pillars constricting and pulling.

>Point taken. Think it can rip these down?

‘I think we’ll probably know in a moment!’

>Right…Well, I think I have a plan.

‘Oh please no.’

>Relax, you’ll like it. I might get killed.

‘Contrary to your beliefs, that is not something I want!’

>No?
‘I can’t torture a corpse!’

>…heartwarming.

<KRACK>

Lines began to form in the pillars they cowered behind.

‘So…plan?’

>You see that alcove over there?

He gestured into the not quite utter darkness of the cavern in a direction more or less to the side of where they entered, their current cover being not quite directly across from the exit.

‘On the side of the cavern?’

>That’s the one. It looks like it’s small enough to offer a bit of cover.

‘Wow! That wouldn’t be pointless! Moving from one bit of currently being destroyed cover to another are which can also be destroyed and get us both eaten! Brilliant!’

>Not both….I’m gonna draw it over there while you haul ass for the door.

‘What!?’

<KRACK>

Rocks began to fall from the ceiling, the pillars wouldn’t hold much longer.
>I’ve got weapons! CJ can stun it for a moment giving me an opening, then I break for that alcove! You make for the entrance. I can use the cover either to hide from it after you make your escape or to buy time to think of a way to get a better head start for my own run!

‘And what if you don’t make it to cover!?’

>…I haven’t tried Benni on it yet…

‘That could bring the whole cavern down on you!’

>Better than getting eaten again! Desperate times Chrysalis!

<KRAKRACKASMASH>

At last the pillars came down leaving them exposed.

>GO!

(2/5)
>>
>>25418524
Spike brought Crackerjack to bear once more on the giant eye blasting it and disorienting the beast for just long enough for the pair to split and begin pelting in separate directions.

>Hey Ugly! This way!

<RAUGHH>

The beast surged after him.

>Yeah, that’s right! Come get me!

‘Crap crap crap crap crap’

The queen pelted back to the entrance, desperately hoping that once, just once, the plan went without a hitch.

<RAWR?>

The beast stopped suddenly, hearing her curses receding into the distance. It began to turn, curious about potentially easier prey.

>HEY! NO! DINNER IS OVER HERE!

<THOOMP THOOMP THOOMP>

<ER?>

<KABOOM>

<GRAH!!!>

Sadly, even the explosive power of the grenade launcher had little effect except to return the thing’s attention to the dragon.

>THAT’S RIGHT! I’M THE ONE ON THE MENU! C’MON AND EAT ME!

The monster obligingly began to close. As it did so the dragon puffed flame once more a new weapon materializing, A long silvered cylinder with a crystalline lens on one end, made to be held like a minigun. He caught it before it hit the ground.

>Better yet…eat this.

With a smile he aimed dead center of the things eye. His finger hovered gently over the trigger as he savoured the moment. Then just as the beast was upon him…he pulled it.

~Weapon charging.~

>…uh oh.

Before he could react and get some distance to allow the weapon to cycle up he was wrenched into the air, his last hope clattering to the floor as the thing suspended him in front of its hideous gaze and began to slowly open its mouth.

Only for the dragon to blast it with emerald flame full in the mouth.

<RAUAAGHGHGH!!!!>

The thing pulled back flailing, but sadly did not drop him. Recovering it opted to flip him into the air and opened its’ jaws wide to catch and devour him. He tumbled helplessly in the air to his doom.

(3/5)
>>
>>25418535
***
Across the cavern chrysalis had at last reached the entrance and turned to look back at the battle. Time slowed down as she watched Spike tumble through the air towards his death, suddenly keenly aware he was going to die saving her life.

She had never been much of a fan of those kinds of plans, seeing as they had contributed to the downfall of her species and just always struck her as stupidly wasteful.

She was powerless to help however, only able to watch in mute silence as-

‘…no. Not powerless…not quite.’

This was a bad idea. This was a stupid idea. This was an absolutely asinine idea…but it might give him a chance to run.

‘Fuck it.’

She gather her power into her horn, all she thought she could spare and more besides into her horn.

‘DIE YOU BITCH!’

She unleashed her last lance of green death straight at the horror of the deeps, and collapsed against the cave wall using it to hold herself up.

The blast took it full in the side knocking it aside as spike tumbled through empty air where the jaws had been moments before and hitting the ground.

>oof.

~Weapon Ready~

His eyes snapping open he rolled to his feet, snatched up the weapon and brought it to bear on the reeling monster. Not taking a chance on another one-liner he pulled the trigger.

A volley of flashing white lighting poured from the crystalline lens at the end of the barrel.

<GRAHH!!!!!>

The monster screamed it’s death throes as the white hot blast tore through it’s flesh, taking it dead center and continuing through it’s now jellied husk slamming into the wall behind cracking it open.

It fell to the ground the remnants bursting on impact spreading gore across much of the floor splattering the dragon in the process.

(4/5)
>>
>>25418548
>PTOO! UGH!…of course. Of course I’d get splattered in monster goop. And right in the mouth…sigh…just…ugh. That’s gonna linger.

>Chrysalis? You ok?

‘D-dandy…’

Her voice came back unusually weak.

Not sure he believed her he quickly made his way to where she was near the entrance.
***
Reaching her, the first thing he noted was that she looked strangely pale.

>Hey.

‘Hey yourself.’

>Thank for that blast. Looks like I owe you my life twice now.

‘Not a fan of people dying for me.’

>Yeah…I didn’t expect that.

She snorted. ‘Ass.’

>More often than I’d care to admit, if I’m honest.

It was odd, talking so comfortably with her. Then again, they had almost gotten killed again, and adrenaline mixed with fatigue can really loosen a tongue.

‘Nice gun, by the way. I might even like to borrow it. Why didn’t you use it sooner?’

>It’s not finished.

She raised a brow wearily in response. ‘Seemed to work from here.’

It worried him she hadn’t noticed yet.

>Yeah…except for being drained in one shot and melting to slag.

He shook his claws for emphasis, the weapon melted around them not budging even a little.

‘…the hell?’

>It was one of twilight’s designs, from shortly before Chitania. She didn’t finish. I tried to fill in the gaps…not entirely successfully it seems. Didn’t even get a chance to test it before we came down here. Luckily, I guess.

‘Hooray for us…’

>yeah…Excuse me I need to go chew this off.

‘hah!....’

<THUD>

>Chrysalis?

Her breathing was shallow.

>Uh oh.

He set about chewing as fast as he could.

"Buttercup"
~~~~

Changeling zero zero Seven was many things. An infiltrator, a soldier in her majesties army, and here recently he even became something of a scientist in a completely new feild undiscovered thus far. He was a monster to some, a strange being to others. To some, he was more.

He was many, many things.

But his skin was made of Chitin, not made of stone.

"She am not making send them back?"

So when he had prepared to go to sleep that night, and found he was not alone in his grass and wood makeshift shelter near his "experiments", he did not have the heart to tell her to go back to her bedding.

>No, Buttercup, she won't.

"Good. Bubbles scared."

>I know she is scared, but it's fine.

"Not fine to her."

>I'll talk to her in the morning.

"... Me shoot her if she tries."

>You've made that abundantly clear.

"Me do it. Bubbles not want go back, she scared."

>She's not going back, okay?

"..."

She didn't say it. He knew it.

Bubbles wasn't the only scared one.

>It's fine. Balance was restored, nothing is too horrible, and the animales were freed. Win win win. The princess won't try anything else.

"... Okay."

>Okay?

Her fears were put to rest, she claimed. Yet, she did not leave.

"Me have to go?"

>... No, you can stay, if you want.

"... Okay."

She was warm, not that he was one to care about that. Softer fur than would be expected for one so rough.

Much more gentle than one her size should be.

>You good?

"...yes... Me can dream now."

Her last whispers, before she lulled off, stuck with him long after she went quiet.

"...me can dream now..."

With him, she could find peace.

Which is why it was such a shame... when he could not do the same.

>This has to work....

>>25418556
... So you're willing to possibly get eaten/crushed to get her to safety, but that's still a no on

[Hmph]

‘Do you really want me to be left with her?’

>Please

[I’m quite tired of being dragged around on a leash]

‘Really? There’s honestly nothing stopping you just… going?’

>Both of y’all… I just wanna visit home, and not having something break before ah’ get back, alright?

[Depends… if she doesn’t become some red monster I have to kill again]

‘Oh please, I didn’t even WANT to do any of that and I still beat you’

[Didn’t count, you just said you never meant it, you haven’t beat me]

‘UGH’

>Yeah Ahmma leave it at that, stay put will ya?

With that Applejack spun and trotted quickly towards the red barnhouse she used to, but still, called home.

[…Family visit?]

‘I suppose, she’s… pretty darn lucky with her family’

[Psht, they all are compared to what I had to put up with]

‘I… I haven’t seen my parents in…. Oh Faust, I don’t know… but it’s too late now… I left them when I needed them the most…’

[Well… I have a daughter…. And that’s it]

‘I’ve got… no-one….’

[…Hrmm]

‘Mmm’

‘[…]’

_______________

>Heeeeey! Granny? Big Mac? Anyone home?

“APPLEJACK! KNOCK NEXT TIME WILL YA?!”

That was more than gratifying to her, AJ thought.

>Granny! Ah shucks, sorry, Ah’ jess’ wanted to stop by,

“Yer more than happy t’, dearie

>Yeah…. C’mere

Quite tentatively, she wrapped herself around her grandmother in a warm and needy hug.

“Awww, is’ somethin’ the matter?”

Just as quickly, she pulled away

>Oh, not really…. Jess’ been a while is all… heh… SO- uhhh, Ah’ haven’t been in mah old room fer a long while.

“Mhmmm, darn right”

>…Aaaaaaand, when this whole freakin’ circus with these things began, Celestia didn’t even give me any time to pack… ah’ had t’ wing it while Ah’ was given every scrap of paper in Canterlot!

>>
>>25418803
“Mmm, Yeeers, that musta happened over there, buuut, nothin’s changed in yer room, come along now, Ah’ll let ye back in then”

>Comin’!

The matronly mare led herself up the stairs with quite some speed, certainly not to hide away a small “Gone but Not Forgotten” memento of Applejack on the upstairs landing table that had somehow eluded AJ’s sight twice before, not in the least. No sir.

AJ however stopped next to the bathroom… it seemed like a lifetime ago she felt the weight of her world had been lifted from her shoulders by that one old mare and her pair of shears.

“Wellllll, yer mane certainly grew back nicely, whadidahtellya? Huh?”

>Mmm, thanks fer… everythin’ y’all did Granny.

“Yer more than welcome, sugarcube, and ah’ see y’all got some dainty lil’ hair clippers for your locks as well, awfully pretty”

It was hard not to blush a little at that

>Ahsmnah… it’s nothin’… just a gift….

“Anypony… prospective…?”

>Nawwww, y’all know him, the buffoon who crashed on our couch?

“Oh!... well he’d be a listener ah’ think. Ho um…”

And like that, Applejack found Granny proudly standing by her bedroom door

“Ah now here it is!”

The door creaked open.

As Applejack strolled in, she felt the air in her lungs immediately stifle, a bought of cloying choking miasma clogged her throat, leaving her coughing and gasping.

>HURKL! HACK! KAFF KAFF KAAFF! Awwwh?! What the FUCK HAPPENED HERE?!

Her backing away from the door let herself get a look of Granny’s VERY disappointed expression.

“Come again young’in?”

>Ah’ uhh-

WAP

“Thought so”

>Alright, alright… ahma sorry… but what the hay was that stuff?

She said, pointing into the room which had a thin sheen of gray around the flatter surfaces.

“…That’s dust”

>Oh

...

>How long have ah’ been gone?

“Thinkin’ around more than a few months since yer last visit after the red things… almost half a year”
>>
>>25418823
Applejack’s head just tilted towards the floor, had she really been away from her home that long? She promised last time she’d come visit more often, but the problems at Canterlot, just kept piling up.

>Ah shucks… ah’m sorry, truly Ah’ am but… Ah’ never-

“Now you stop that mopin’ at once, y’all gotta keep the land toiling nicely up in the city, no shame about it”

>Yeah, ah getcha, really ah’ do. Jess’ ah’ never much made an effort to come back here. Ah’ mean… it never really…. Crossed mah mind…

“Oh…Oh Applejack, ye honestly feel bad about yerself cos y’all could never make any time for yer family?”

>Mmm… Cos… Iffin ah’ leave that office and come on down here… Ah’ just know somethin’ horrendous is a-comin’ onto everypony and Ah’ should be there t’ stop it… that is provided Ah’m not the one who’s kickin the shitshow off myself-

This time, it was Granny who gently brought her into an understanding.

“Shhhh, easy now, yer jess’ stressed is all”

>Ah’ just…. Ah’ jess’ wanna be here…

No words, just gentle sounds of hugging.

>..An’ mah family… ah’ was meant to stay onna farm

“Whatcha talkin’ about now?”

While AJ had her head on Granny’s shoulder, she pulled back at that question, but she didn’t really have much of a response.

>Ah….well…. Ah’ thought ah was…

“Go on…”

>Meant t’ stay here, and work the farm… help an’ provide for mah family…

“Oh but you are, y’may not be here workin’ onna orchard, but yer helpin’ us all. Yer a PRINCESS fer petes sake!

>But…mah cutiemark… it’s always told me that this-

She gestured, to nowhere in particular, but for Granny and Applejack, it was enough to tell what she implied.

>…This is mah home, s’where ah’ was meant t’ be, always was…. An’ always will be.

“Ohh, Applejack…”

3/?
>>
>>25418835
>It don’t feel right jess’ leavin’ y’all hung’n’dry for Faust knows how long… cutiemark….princess…. nuthin’ can justify it… Ah’ dunno how Big Mac’s coped handling all the work Ah’ left behind

“He’s bein’… real brave, y’know”

Again, Applejack broke the embrace. Staring into Granny Smith’s worried expression; she broke away from that concerned stare to trot over to her old dressing drawers. Opening it, she solemnly rifled a hoof around the contents, till her eye caught a pair of old, musty pieces of cloth.

“…So… Ah’ guess y’all jess’ hafta pack yer things. Heh, we never really did give you a proper send off, but we can make it work this time around, eh?”

Tentatively, Applejack took ahold of a pair of tattered but soft to the touch socks, the orange and green were a little much on the eyse. But she couldn’t help but feel the slew of memories come back to her.

>Heh, ah’ remember these, these were from Heartswarming years back… they still look one size too big for me.

“Aaaah did say y’all are gonna grow into ‘em, ah’ said it when y’all were a lil’ runt, and ya’ still got some growin’ left in ya!”

>Aha…ehe…ahahaha Guh ha hahah ha ha ah!

“Neh hee hee hehehehee!”

She laughed, she honest to goodness couldn’t not laugh at that cheesy but well-meaning quip from her grandmother.
Despite every little adventure she had back in Canterlot, every friend or gruff acquaintance she had come across, she still felt that this? Her Family? Her home? This was always a part of her. And….. she wanted it back… That part of her that had grown up and lived with this family, her family, it wanted to feel this way again.

>Hehehahah….Ehh….huh….

“AJ? Yer lookin’ mighty contemplative… somethin’ on yer mind?”

She didn’t answer, instead she looked out the window, a field of tree tops, and far rolling hills in the distance.

>Huh… this room doesn’t face Canterlot, doesn’t it?

“Ehhh, Big Mac’s room does, what’s gonn’ on in yer head?”

>That’s uhh, that’s something ah hafta work on Granny, but… you uhh

She finally turned to face her, socks fallen onto the floor, her hooves shuffling about purposefully.

>Y’all know anywhere ah’ can buy a desk fer this house?

“…Huh, y’all ain’t been around fer a long time, there’s a desk down inna drawin’ room iffin y’all need it…. Whatcha planning?”

>Ah’ wanna…

Abandon Canterlot, leave all her responsibilities behind, stay at home and stagnate, go back to square one, never get any work done, never be responsible for anything. Pretend she doesn’t have to be a Princess, try and rekindle her love for a town she sorely neglected for years, try to forgive herself about how poor a family member she was...

No.

>…Ah’ wanna come back to Sweet Apple Acres, more often, make it a …. Part time bit of mah’ job, come down, do work here, see how the town’s getting’ along, stay with mah family. And oh sweet mercy ah’ jess’ wanna buck some trees like ah’ always did done.

>>25418861
And they were both beaming at each other.

“Well now, iffin mah grand daughter thinks she can turn this farm house into a dang Princess’s office? Theeeen she’d better be ready t’ deal with me as well!”

>Awww, thanks Granny…

“Heck! Why we gotta go buy a desk, ah’m sure Big Mac’d be more than happy t’ build y’all that desk himself!”

>No kiddin’… he would?

“Oh sure thing… provided you owe him a few months of apple-buckin’ first.”

>WHY DIN’T YA SAY SO FIRST! AH’LL GET RIGHT ON IT!

“Ah-HEM!”

She was that close to being out the door.

>Wha-?

“Them’s ain’t applebuckin’ socks, AJ, y’all clobber ‘em before y’all can grow into them.”

Sure as summer, she had almost subconsciously put said socks onto her hind hooves, seeking some old comfort from them.

>…Oh… heh, mah bad.

And just like that, they were daintly back on the bed,

>Yeah… those’re more “mornin’ socks”, but… huh…

“What now?”

>…How sturdy do ya think the roof is?

Granny only stared dumblfoundedly at the ceiling at that, trying more to find reason behind Applejack’s question than just giving her a straight answer.

“Eeeeenh, strong enough? Why y’all ask?”

>Ahh, s’nothin’. But iffin y’all see Big Mac anytime soon… tell ‘im ah’m busy workin’ off a debt!

This time, AJ was the shockingly fast one down the stairs and out the house, she was going to set something right she had left a long time past.

>YEEEHAAAW!

Huh. Between Sunset, Twilight and Spike, Celestia has a really depressing surrogate mother track-record of raising neurotic, nervous wrecks with heavy inclination to introspection.

~Crystal Ponies~
~~~~

No matter what anyone said, Shining Armor was not a slow witted pony. Sure, his accent and one time mind control event occasionally gave such an impression, but it was simply untrue.

His mind, sharp as the sword of a Captain of the Royal Guard should be, was already in action, already spinning, already thinking of ways to diffuse and solve this terrible situation. Already, he was on the case, and a thousand possibilities to turn this into a complete non-issue were already forming. All he had to do was be quick enough, and nothing bad would-

"O-oh dear..."

...Alright, not the best of situations, as his wife now looked rather stupid with her gawking eyes and nervous, stuttering voice, but it was still perfectly manageable to fix so long as-

'Oh my um... cats out of the bag?... Whoops?'

Bad, okay, bad. But no need to panic yet! Rarity was clearly talking about her own little experiment, not what Cadence was no doubt thinking, which means so long as he intervened it could just-

"CHRYSALIS DO SOMETHING!"

OH FUCK.

[Wait, do you mean do the... thing?]

NO! DON'T LOOK AT YOUR HORN! SHE DOESN'T MEAN THAT!

... He hoped she didn't mean that.

She better not have meant that.

'WHAT!? You can't possibly be implying that!'

He would give his sister credit, the illusion was excellent in conveying a level of disgust he thought could only be done naturally. But good, from the look of revulsion on his wife's face, she shared that thought, which meant he could-

"W...wha-NO! Oh no! No I didn't mean that!"

Too late, damage done.

Every Crystal Pony surrounding them couldn't help but glance back and forth between the princess and Queen, nervously shuffling a bit at the implications.

"I didn't mean that! I wanted her to... um..."

To spin this like only she could, was the unspoken words heard only by those who knew her.

1/5
>>
>>25435792

But that was fine! He had an opening! He just had to jump in and-

'This has simply gone too far now! You can't rush to them to solve your problems for every single little thing!'

-Get cut off by Rarity full of righteous indignation, is what he could do. He could apparently do that. But this left him an opening! Now he could use this to convince the populace that-

"Excuse me!? You're on your high horse right now!? YOU!?"

'Yes, ME! Do you have an issue with that? You? It's certainly not hard to get on a high horse above you! You never do anything! Oh, don't you give me that look. After all the help I've done for you without thanks or even acknowledgement, I'd certainly say you deserve this!'

"EXCUSE ME!?"

Oh fuck.

"No thanks!? NO ACKNOWLEDGEMENT!? What about the fact you're currently ON A FUCKING DATE-"

{NONONONONO! NOT ME! THAT'S NOT ME! THAT IS NOT ME NOT MEEEE! NOT! FUCKING! MEEEE!}

Okay, so, captain of the guard training, that's one thing.

Being a panicking mare in love? That apparently gave you speed that was frankly unnatural.

"...Uh..."

And, sure enough, that took the rage right out of her lovely, deep and sparkling eyes, and she believed right away the words so desperately spoken.

There was just one.
Tiny.
Little.
Hiccup.

'...Oh dear...'

{W-what? Why is everyone...}

Her hoof came to her chest, and he could see it dawn in her eyes.

Nope.

Not chitin.

Fur.

{...O-oh love damn it...}

The gasp that rang out through the crowd cold not have been synchronized better if it had been practiced for a concert. Internally, he watched his date squirm, feeling their eyes upon her in a second. Of all the times for her little 'tick' to act up...

"...Wait... then which one are you!?"

It was quite telling that, for the briefest of seconds, Rarity looked honestly confused at such a question.

'Which one am- oh dear, right...'

She had sincerely seemed to have forgotten who she was disguised as.

[Wait, who the fuck? You're not a changeling!]

2/5
>>
>>25435810
Goddamn internet! Sorry!
The crowd gasped at that, as well they should, but something was off..

His own brain made the connection very shortly after their own seemed to. The crowd at large noticed a very particular reaction on his wife at that moment. A reaction that said that this, of all things thus far, was of particular note.

They, like him, were not stupid. It did not take them very long to figure out the implications to such, and much more stunning implications to arise from it.

~How do we know which one is the real princess!?~

"I am!"

~But how do we know?~

Okay! This one was good! This was good! He could deal with this! He just had to get Eighteen and Rarity to drop their disguises, and... turn this all around, somehow!

He didn't know how that was going to happen but he could at last do something so long as-

~I've got this! Only the real princess would know where I'm building my music hall! She helped me find the locations and sign the permits for it this morning in person, no way did anyone else know about it! She'd know!~

Suddenly, all eye were on the real Cadence.

"...u-uh..."

And her eyes were nothing but blank, empty stares.

~...What are you doing?~

Eighteen froze in her tracks, her sneaking brought to a halt amidst a thousand stares on her back. The magic on her horn gone in a flash.

Mind magic, not that they would know.

{Nothing!}

~Waiiiit a minute... WAIT A MINUTE! It was that one! That's the princess!~

{...No I'm not.}

~Yes you are! It was you this morning!~

{Nope. Wrong one. I'm a... body double.}

~It was you!~

{I have no idea what makes you think that, but you're wrong. Wrong princess.}

~You still have the gum I stuck in your hair!~

Ever so slowly, her prim pink hoof reached up, reached around, and touched the back of her head.

Sure enough, she pulled it away, and it did not come alone. The pink bubblegum pulled with it several strands of identically colored hair.

{...OH DEAR LOVE EW EW EW! EW! You seriously stuck this in my hair!? How did nobody notice this!? Why didn't anyone tell me!? You promised me you didn't spit it out on the street!}

~Well, I didn't.~

{I AM SO FINING YOU FOR... oh fuck.}

Oh fuck indeed.

~So... but wait, you're NOT the princess?~

Oh. Fuck. Indeed.

{...I uh... said it to throw you off the trail so the real me could stay hidden? Annnd... then you'd have to prove you knew the real me! Yes! This was all a test to-}

'THIS HAS TO STOP!'

A tiny little spell, so tiny it would have been unseen had it not been so bright, hit her in the side of her head, mid rant.

And then it just all fell away, every illusion just fell away.

~A... changeling...~

Every single illusion. Eighteen's disguise magic near perfect, it just fell away. Rarity's own disguise, dispelled. All of it, every bit, gone.

'This has to stop! This lying has to stop, now! You can't keep doing this! None of us can keep doing this, Cadence! We're not gods! WE'RE NOT GODS, CADENCE! STOP IT NOW!'

Including the illusion held so long by Cadence herself.

"...Er... I'm not the real Cadence either! None of us are! She's on a... super secret mission and we're all filling in for her?"

None of them, not a one, seemed to think that true.

"Uh... U-uh..."

They just stared. Wide eyed, mouths slightly open, they just stared at her.

'Just stop...'

Their princess.

{Oh fuck, oh fuck...}

Their ruler.

~Princess Cadence?~

Standing before them, with no illusions left.

"...Chrysalis, get us out of here."

[I don't think that's a good-]

"GET US OUT OF HERE!"

>>25435961

At long last, they heard real, authoritative power in her voice. So powerful, so strong, even the Queen herself could not fight it anymore or disobey. She acquiesced to the call, and brought her flames, no matter how utterly terrible an idea every single one of them knew this was.

They were consumed, all of them. From Cadence to Rarity to Eighteen to even himself felt the flames tickling around him, consuming him.

They were being taken away, to where he wasn't sure, but they would not be here any longer. Away from the ponies staring at them shocked, away from the murmers and rumbling of his subjects, away from everything, just for a bit.

At last, they had run out of stuff to go wrong.

>...Huh, Eighteen was right...I can hear them laughing too.

Chrysalis never gets laid.

>>25440135
That's not status quo, that's a running gag.

I can already see the Harem-apologists writing in my head

>Wow why'd you have to go expose our tenuous illusion that our Empire wasn't built off of hiding the immense deception of our citizens and the jaw dropping incompetency and nepotism of our ruling classes

>You shouldn't have exposed it it was working fiiiiine there's nothing wrong with having a changeling infiltrator pose as the capable face of the nations most beloved figure.

>Wow Rarity you suck I wish Chrysalis was here to fix all this
>>
>>25440341
Are you talking about from other people or in the story? Cuz the story kind of knocked down all of that. Including the Chrysalis thing. Especially the Chrysalis thing. She was there, she didn't do shit and actually almost made it worse
>>
>>25440386
I mean someone is going to desperately try and resolve this in favour of the status quo or vigorously defend the status quo as the story progresses

I've been there
>>
>>25440341
Only real issue I'm seeing with your idea is, one, it's not that nepotism of the ruling classes, she's the only incompetent one. Shiny, the guards and the others do a good job. Second, 18 wasn't the face of it, she was the one hiding in the shadows doing all the work. The face of it was the one posing as the one doing all the work, the changling wasn't posing as anybody. Third, um... Chrysalis is right there. What she gonna do?
>>
>>25440414
You mean another Wonderbolt situation? Cuz if you thought the actual author was planning that... Why bring it up? I mean, this was obviously set up for quite a while. This is a lot of work over several weeks. I mean I assume it's a lot, I don't know how long you guys take to write. Maybe it just took like 10 minutes, I don't know. Point is if the guy making it wanted a status quo, why not just... Not do anything? Why bring it up? Nobody else did for over 100 threads.

I hope we don't get in another Wonderbolt argument, if that's what you mean
>>
>>25440341
One guy was okay with it as long as he could say it was all chrysalis' fault
I wanted this to get blown up back with Spitfire and Sunset but it is better this way since thy can't jus beat and sweep Rarara under the rug like they theoretically could with sunset
>>25440386
By listening to cadence and getting out or teleporting into the city (to shiny) instead of back to the castle which caused them to be exposed
>>25440414
I think the mos that will happen is at the end of the day is Cadence mares up and gives a public apology and everyone treats 18 like the guard already do. The bigger thing will be Rarara/love butts relationship going forwards (we just fixed that after the first half had them be nothing but catty bitches to each other) and cadence's princess retraining hutting the wall of "thank you 18" if she ever shows competence.
>>25440438
If the story was any indication her options were never show up, mind wipe everyone and get put in the doghouse of everyone not named cadence, or talk cadences way out of it for her to forever cement the status quo.
>>
>>25440627
I think it would be a really fitting retribution if cadence finally turned it all around, and everybody just assumed it was all 18. That would be kind of funny.
>>
>>25440414
... well good fucking luck to them. Would love to see this get swept under the rug.

Technically it is and it isn't. It's not in that it must remain for something, since it's not even a commonly made joke like say Shiny getting laid, but it is in that it's a state that if it changed things would change drastically one way or the other.

If Chrysalis got laid, there would be some... shocking repercussions.

~???~
~~~~

Step one, grab hold, and make sure Cadence doesn't kill Rarity.

"I"M GOING TO KILL YOU!"

Step two can come later.

'I'm sorry!'

"YOU'RE SORRY!? YOU'RE SORRY!? I'LL SHOW YOU SORRY!"

'Cadence, please! I didn't want any of this to happen!'

[Good job with that one.]

'Hush, you ghastly little bug! I'm trying to apologize!'

[Doing a shitty job of it.]

"WHY!? OF ALL THE THINGS YOU COULD POSSIBLY DO, WHY THIS!? WHY NOW!? WHAT WERE YOU THINKING WHEN YOU REVEALED THIS!?"

There was exactly one thing he was not expecting form the honestly apologetic looking unicorn before now.

That thing was her looking offended.

Tonight was just full of surprises.

'That's all you care about...'

"What!? Of course that's what I care about! That's all that fucking matters! Now everyone knows, Rarity! Everyone! Do you have any idea what you did!? Do you have even the slightest inkling of what this means!? WHAT WERE YOU THINKING!?"

'...I don't regret it.'

Many, many surprises.

"WHAT DID YOU JUST SAY!?"

It was a bold move, stepping closer to the mare who looked ready to break out and chew off her face. Bold, and just a wee bit stupid.

Maybe more than a bit if he was being honest.

'I don't regret what I did at all! This has gone on for too long, Cadence! These lies have done nothing but give your subjects the sense that you are some all knowing, benevolent goddess of love! I don't regret showing them the truth!'

"SHINY LET ME GO!"

>Not going to do that.

No matter how many times he took blows to the side, was the unspoken ending to that. He was not letting go.

Mostly because there's a decent chance he might join her at this rate...

>>
>>25449415

'Did you think it was just from random chance that I decided to look like you? Of course not! I needed to know what everyone thought of you considering how much we've been working on just getting you passable! I know first hoof how much you do, or rather how little I should say! I thought that at the very least there was some indication that maybe you weren't personally seeing to every little thing. But to my surprise, nobody even entertained the idea that you weren't the one doing everything! They laughed off the idea that Shining did even half of it, and I said it looking like you, Cadence! I knew it was bad, but I never dreamed it was this bad!'

"LET! ME! GO!"

>Please stop kicking me.

Oh good, Chrysalis is stepping up now, this is going to end well...

[Where the fuck did all this come from!?]

Oh, good, she's turned on Chrysalis now, maybe now his wife will calm down just a bit after the Queen snaps and starts beating her.

Not to imply that's what he wanted to happen, just that this is very much what it looked like the Queen was ready to do.

'Where did it come from? I'll tell you where! It came from watching an injured thing limp off with a bullet wound in her shoulder, that she got from stopping what looked to be a damned armed robbery! Oh, but because we, the royals of Equestria, were involved, that was all okay! Do you have any idea how horrible I felt when I shot the poor thing in the face over a misunderstanding, and she was the one who got chided for daring not to just bow to me!?'

[...what the fuck are you even talking about!?]

'I'm talking about... haven't you noticed how we're treated? Luna, Twilight, Celestia.. all of them have inadvertently caused disasters in some way or another, but do any of us ever actually answer for it? No... no, we just get to do... whatever we want! Castle funds come our way, tax dollars mind you! And we just take it and do whatever little silly thing we want, no rules... no accountability...'

2/6
>>
>>25449428

He most certainly was not a fan of her right now, but his natural empathy couldn't help but make him feel at least something when she looked so downtrodden.

'...I spent so much funding when I was... like I was, and nobody has even asked I pay it back. I wasted scores of wealth that the taxpayers worked hard to achieve, who gave to us so we could keep their lives going better, and I just wasted it on... things!'

And of course, now she looks back to Cadence. Now.

When she looks angry again.

'I picked you for a reason, Cadence! I looked like you today for a reason! It was just supposed to be learning about how you were seen, that was all! I was going to do it for everyone. But when this... lovely twist of fate finally forced you to reveal this disgusting little secret, and you honestly tried to hide it yet again instead of daring to let anyone else see you for how you really are... I couldn't. I couldn't let you hide it again! Not again! Not ever again! I couldn't let you keep up this lie, lazing about and spending your subjects hard earned funds on frivolous things, while she toils away in your name and actually makes their lives better! She, not you, deserves to be-'

SLAP!

He was pretty sure even Canterlot heard that slap.

{Stop dragging me into this! Stop making me seem like I want any of this to happen you asshole!}

Huh. It was slightly soothing to watch Eighteen pick her up and start shaking her.

For him, if not for Cadence at least.

{What part of 'I don't care if nobody knows' do you stupid motherfuckers not get!? I swear it's like everytime one of you gets some crazy in you, you decide that you know what's best for me! What part of "I think it's better if everyone thinks it's Cadence who does it all" is not sinking in to you!? I don't want this! I DIDN'T WANT THIS!}

'But it's wrong!'

3/6
>>
>>25449441

{I don't care, you hear me!? I don't fucking care! I don't I don't I don't! I wanted things to stay the same! I wanted things to work out like they have been! And I swear to you, I swear on my old Hive's graves, that if this little thing you did ends up with them thinking I'm trying to infiltrate and control this place and gets me kicked out, I will kill you! I will fucking kill you! I SWEAR TO THEM I WILL KILL YOU!}

She meant it. Every word.

'I... I-I...'

From the horrified, sincerely terrified look in her eyes, it was apparent to him, hopefully to all, that she had never once even considered something like that at all.

'I didn't mean to-'

{I don't care, you hear me!? I DON'T CARE!}

At last, he could let go of his wife. Had to, really.

Eighteen's hooves were moving towards the mares throat, and he had to act.

Now.

{I JUST WANTED TO STAY HERE-}

[That's enough of that.]

Gone.

'WAIT-'

Fire there one second and the next, gone.

With it, Princess Rarity.

Taken with her, all the warmth in the now chilling room.

>Chrysalis... what have you done?

[I sent the moron to that holding pen we kept Sunset in, that's what... oh, what, like pretending to be a princess and revealing state secrets isn't a prison worthy offense? She did say she wanted to be treated like everyone else, after all...]

He felt cold, watching her eyes go into feral slits as she spoke, power leaking from every letter on her tongue. The strange part is... he couldn't find a reason to argue her.

Shaking, twisting chitinous hooves remained hanging where alabaster neck had been mere moments ago, still shaking in rage.

{Why...}

[So we can fucking fix this without her around to fuck this up anymore! Don't worry, I have a plan, we just need to get some things, get Sombra, start a very small fire and we can have this back to before that stupid pony even had a thought in her empty fucking head.

"No."

He had never seen the Queen honestly culled, honestly having he wind taken out of her sails so quickly by a single word. He thought, as most did, when she started to plot, there was nothing in the world that could stop her.

He was wrong.

"...N-no..."

>Cadence?

His wife wouldn't, perhaps couldn't, look at him.

"Shining... didn't... didn't you say you didn't care if everyone knew?"

He had. He had, many many times, said that Eighteen should get credit for what she did. He had said that, many times.

He had wanted that, every time.

[Cadence... listen to me, right now.]

She was at her side soon enough, her chin hanging over her shoulder.

[This is the worst time this could happen, think about all the... 'implications' you're risking with this. Just let us get it back to normal, and then we can reveal it later, on our own terms.]

>Honey...

He hovered over the other shoulder, still not quite able to see her face.

>If... if you want to go this way, we can.

[Think about this! Do you really want this to be on her terms? That ineffectual asshole who never managed to teach you a single thing, demeaned you, pretended to be you and then revealed you in front of everyone? Do you really want to give her that?]

>We can, they'll... they'll understand. I'm sure of it, I've always believed it. You don't have to be seen as perfect to make them happy.

[That's another thing! Think of what this is going to do to the Heart! If it goes dim, we might be all covered in a damn permafrost! We need to reduce the damage now!]

>Cadence... whatever you choose, I'll still be with you. No matter what, I'm not going anywhere.

He cut his eyes across her shoulder, to the Queen hovering over that shoulder's twin.

>What about you?

The changeling looked stricken, struck right down to her very core from the question. She glared back, a rare thing to him he noticed, trying to stare him down.

[... We should go with my plan.]

5/6
>>
>>25449471

>And if we don't?

[... I'll call you stupid while we're doing it.]

It wasn't a direct admittance.

It may as well have been.

[I can fix this.]

>I know you think you can, but if she doesn't want to...

"Eighteen..."

She moved beyond them, to the still shaking, still staring, ice cold changeling. She left the two royals behind, trotted up to her...

And hugged her, tighter than he could ever remember her doing to anyone else before... even himself.

"You... you aren't going anywhere."

Shivering, unsteady hooves met the ones holding her, gripping them back just as tightly.

{I need this place. T-this is my home.}

"...and it always will be."

[Do you at least have a plan?]

The face that looked back to them, to alabaster and ebony glances, was one streaked with tears, and afraid.

But... smiling.

"...No..."

It was not exactly a vote of confidence.

>So... what do we do?

Nobody had the answers, of course.

~How's about you start by telling us WHAT THE FUCK IS GOING ON!?~

And there was Twilight, right on cue.

>...well at least if nothing else, she can't make this situation worse.

He doesn't know why he said it.

And it was looking to be a good one as well

Now we're back to "Harem inexplicably fixes everything" again
>>
>>25449485
I like how the ending was pretty much just "No, we're not going to insta fix this."

>>25449586
I'm actually surprised she lasted that long. What, was ANYBODY in the room going to thank her? Praise her? "Oh Rarity, thank god you fucked up this thing that 4/5ths of us were great with, and now Eighteen has to seriously worry that the Crystal ponies might, very reasonably say some shit like "Hey, I just noticed we have a changeling in the castle doing our paperwork, can we fucking not have that? And you know what, I'm starting to worry about this whole changeling thing in the first place, mayyybe get rid of all of them?" Whatever would we have done without you!"

Admittedly, I thought someone was going to like... shoot her, but this is probably BCS.

>>25449649
I'm miffed that it's the second time an outside inluence has tried to make some change to El Harem dos Crystals and been kicked the fuck aorund and outta here.

First time with Sunset being fucking mauled by 18 and now with Rarity getting brig'd because 18 shat her pants and-...

Y'know I'm noticing a pattern here
>>
>>25449586
Ehhhh, It'd feel pretty weird if Rarity was the one to fix this considering everything leading up to it.

That said, I'm hoping Twilight isn't there just cause, and it's more Twilight fixes problems like in the show. She's a good problem fixer.

>>25449649
>Admittedly, I thought someone was going to like... shoot her,

Oh, good, that wasn't just me. I thought Chrysalis was going to open fire there.

Yeah, would be pretty weird if anyone was actually even okay with what she did. Even if Shining wanted 18 to get credit, he sure as hell didn't want it like this.

Though, admittedly I find myself agreeing with Rarara, even if I have to admit it would be kinda forced if any of them agreed with her.

Still, I'm very much happy with the whole
>Nope! No reset here!

Vibe from all that, and I'm curious to watch the fallout now. Not gonna be pretty, but I like it.
>>
>>25449702
>Y'know I'm noticing a pattern here

That both times they tried to reveal 18's secret to 'give her the real credit', and 18 doesn't want that and gets pissed off?

Though I don't know what you mean about the second one, Chrysalis went-
>FUCK YOU GET GONE BEFORE YOU FUCK SHIT UP SOME MORE!... Good! Now that she's out of the way, allow me to fix this while looking creepy!... What do you mean, no!?
>>
>>25449485
...Okay, Chrysalis kinda has a point.

"We royals don't deserve special treatment!"

>Oh, okay, so you want to get locked up for identity theft, impersonation, revealing state secrets and shooting somebody to make their disguise drop. Cauuuse everything 18 did is legal, including looking like Cadence since she said okay, you're the one who broke a lot of laws.

"Er..."

Anybody else feel it would be kinda cheap if Rarity actually got let off the hook for this one? Kinda hard to accept her whole thing if she then turns around and has herself let off for all the shit she just did.

>Magic spell-disenchantment

Dang Chrysalis since when were you a part of Moms Demand Action?
>>
>>25449828
Wait, Rarity has an Anti-Changeling-Disguise spell?

It just said a bright, tiny thing hit her in the side of the head. There was nothing saying Rarity has some Nth level shit that even Twilight doesn't have.

If that is what that was supposed to be, I call bullshit. You need some actual leadup to a game changer like that.
>>
>>25449883
(Guy who wrote it)

It's not an anti-changeling-diguise spell, no worries. I'm not gonna drop something huge like that just for a plotpoint, gotta be smart about how you do a reveal like that. Can't just use it to fix a hole in the story.

But no, she didn't shoot-her-shoot-her, the Seven story I'm using as the spring-point for her character development made it pretty obvious she's not used to using offensive magic.

Nope, was just a bight thing that gave off a loud noise, which is no more illegal than throwing a fire-free sparkler at someone. It going off on the side of her head is intentional, it went into her ear, which is why only she heard it. Essentially, overloading two of her senses to make it hard to keep up the disguise while she's distracted talking and thinking

But you're not supposed to know this yet, it might come up later... probably not because I just said it, but there you go.

Anyone remember what the lowest sparklejoule ratings are?

not pure black but the ones only slightly above that?
>>
>>25451211
Something Obsidian for how deep you can go but still pull back. Black Obsidian? I don't know, something to do with that range on the light intensity spectrum, just dark=Bad.

Though Pitch Black is the second lowest, lowest is actually Void. As in, nothing there, period. Not lack of light, lack of ANYTHING. You're essentially dead inside.
>>
>>25451211
From the 18 arc, Midnight Black is the lowest, and 18 was at Midnight Crimson.

From that story, Midnight Black is "the physical, mental and emotional inability to feel or give love in any capacity. A mind, a body, a soul, too clouded by bitterness and apathy and darkness to ever allow light or good or joy inside of them."
>>
>>25451211
>not pure black but the ones only slightly above that?

Black is worst case scenario, aside from that it's all about their own specific rating and lower light versions of that.

Emerald Green becomes Mossy-midnight-dull green, Red becomes Crimson-dark red and so on and so forth.

Less light is the key here, as love is seen as a luminous spectrum with the colors influenced by who's doing it. The base color doesn't change, it just gets harder to see.
>>
>>25450944
I keep forgetting sometimes Chitty isn't just a dumb brute, but whenever I re-read her actual appearances in arcs I get reminded that she's actually pretty damn clever under all that.

"??"
~~~

It had not been a particularly long time since the changeling had been in those castle walls. Yet, within it, he found himself looking at it with an eye he had not held with such before. Things looked... different now. He was not so sure how that difference was, but it was different to be sure.

But the time for reflection would come later. Now, he had another mission on his mind.

>Cousin! Cousin that is mine bane!... Where is that devil wearing the skin of mine kin? That blasted imp in the form of a youthful soul? He is normally about in this place, slipping in and out without nary a care... if he hath deemed to skimp out on his training once more, OH! The words I shall have for him! The fury I shall bring down upon thine head! The woe I shall- GAH!

The floor rushed to greet him, as any friend would, and his chin found itself a friend to them indeed.

>...Ow.

"Hey'a cuz!"

He did not know if he should be thankful his cousin at least stalled long enough to look back and greet him after running his legs headfirst, or insulted in some way when the little devil just kept running.

>CEASE!

It was an old command, from that time that seemed an eternity ago. Whenever he would start to wander off or move towards something or someone he should not, that is what he would say.

In the time long ago, he used to put a bit of mind magic into it to add a bit of odds to his favor of success, not that it was a certainty even with that, but by now the need had long since past. He knew, and he stopped, rolling his head back to look at his cousin from a cockeyed angle as he stood, ready to run again.

"What's up, cuz?"

>What is up? I do not see you for a day, and this is how you greet me?

"Aww, don't play that game, cuz!"

>HRMPH! And here I was hoping to share of my recent lesson with thee!

"Can you do it later? I'm kind of in a hurry. Big, big hurry."

1/3
>>
>>25452347

It was a little disheartening that his cousin did not wish to hear of it, though the changeling did not let it show. He normally loved to hear of his lessons... but still, he supposed there were other things that needed addressing.

>I came to ensure thou art progressing in the art of battle, yet instead I find thee running about every which way like a fool!

"Oh... oh! Right! New change!"

>New... by the gods of love themselves!

He bopped him, and it was about as useful had he actually tried to strike him. A blow to the head that rolled off like rain.

>Thou swore to me this would be taken seriously! I had thine word!

"It is! No foolin', cuz!"

>You just said you have changed your mind yet again!

Fifty Six at last let it sink in how angry he was. No surer way to tell it so than when the 'totally real and natural' accent started to slip.

"No no! No changing minds! Changing things!"

>...Clarify.

He looked left, he looked right, and then he leaned in, whispering conspiratorially.

"I met her!"

>... I meant clarify in a way that makes sense.

"No! I mean I met HER!"

>...Are thou doing this to annoy me?

"I met her her! The her of hers! The HER that I've been looking for!"

>...so that's a yes.

"I met the Nightgaurd captain!"

>Oh... oh! Oh, well... that is something.

"Yep! And she said if I found the common room, she might actually let me think about joining up!"

It was hard not to be infected by the boundless joy radiating off of the tiny thing.

Somehow, Twenty Nine managed.

>Oh... really? But thou art still so young.

"Ahhhh, she's probably not gonna put me on the front lines or fighting anybody yet! But this is my big break! I'm finally getting in, cuz!"

>Yes, this is... what you were hoping for, isn't it?

"Yep!"

>Do you want help?

"Nope, gotta find this on my own! How embarrassing would it be if I had to get help from my cousin!? I'd never live it down!"

>I suppose... well, congrat-

"No time to talk, gotta keep searching!"

2/3
>>
>>25452363

He tore off with a speed far too fast for Twenty Nine's liking. With every wobbling step, it looked like he would fall.

But he did not. He remained upright, moving forwards and away from him, wobbling all the way. Running so fast, no longer able to be touched by the hoof that was still reaching out for him.

He watched, until he was gone.

>...good job, little cousin... I'm sure you'll surprise them all...

He must be in a hurry, the changeling thought to himself, he hadn't even said goodbye...

He supposed he could talk to him later. His new developments weren't that important, in comparison. He could speak of what he had seen with the princess on another day. Surely, he reasoned, he would be more interested when he explained all of the interesting things the Princess he so admired did. But that tale would come at another time.

He had places to be, after all, and he couldn't wait up for a story...

He was smiling, despite himself, when he turned around and made the choice to head back to Canterlot. He was smiling, no matter how hollow it felt. Not that it mattered, it was not like anyone was around to see it.

No one, except perhaps the two yellow eyes, cut clean in the darkness, watching him with every step, reading everything that could not be seen. For, it was not only changeling eyes that could see that which is normally kept hidden.

Those eyes saw it all, in every twitch of the cheek, in every step, they saw them all.

And they understood.

MEH END for Ponies BAD END for Lings
>>
Question. Are there any rules in regards to OOCO with Chrysalis and Spike. Like, do they have to hate each other until we get to the end of their little adventure and they kiss and make up? I'm just wondering.
>>
>>25452620
Wait, why would Chitty get iced in this timeline? Even assuming that one theory was right that she specifically let 42 live so she could one day take 13'a place, Chrysalis's mom wouldn't start a war if it failed, since that would require 42 outright telling her it was under orders.

Also, Cadence is fucking dead in a timeline where Aurelia lives and Chrysalis doesnt, assuming she took over the Chrysalis plot of the Canterlot invasion I mean. Momsie don't fucking let you out. Twilight also probably got set on fire or something.

So, still BAD END for ponies.

But what I meant was that Chitty was thinking about how maybe working with pone might not be so bad.

>>25452721
If you want to add to that particular story, yeah, I'd say that making them not hate each other would probably not fit. If you just mean in general, use own discretion. They used to be on okay terms with each other way back in the day.

Barring that, eh, we'll probably roll with it anyway.
>>
>>25452767
>But what I meant was that Chitty was thinking about how maybe working with pone might not be so bad.

That would be weird if it happened.

>Chitty, being one of the more sane, would probably come to be okay with ponies on the whole.
>At this time, she is still fucking TERRIFIED of Celestia. She's seriously pants-shittingly worried that alicorns are superbeings without compare. She was shaking like a leaf staring down CADENCE.
>If they did meet, it would probably be on good terms, with Chitania just going "This is us, this is how we work, we want to come out of the shadows." And since her friend is so nice she'd certainly back her up, and we all know how much a boner for friendship Celestia has.
>So, Changelings probably get revealed and not hated.
>But this puts a huge problem in Aurelia's plan.
>Because first off, every motherfucking Queen on the planet is going to want in on this shit if Chitty's doing it, which means Equestira is literally flooded by a horde of megalomaniacal, backstabbing, promiscuous, literal heart eating bitches with delusions of grandeur.
>And then any attempts to unite the hives gets really fucking hard.
>So now Chitania has to deal with the fact she's got to watch out for these morons, most of whom used to kill ponies at some point, and get them not to be assholes and stop fucking everyone, literally and figuratively.
>And Celestia has to deal with this influx of love eating superbugs.
>And Aurelia has to figure out how to make her plan work with all this shit going down.

It would pretty much be Game of Pones
>>
>>25452767
I am assuming that when if she failed to replace 13 with 42 that a fight would happen and while Momsie don't play, she hemorrhages minions. Also I am assuming that as the worst case scenario of pursuit to take out a potential hostile. Best case would be if 42 is found out Chitty Smash and she lives with her hive in the mountains that she was content to stay in or dead Chitty. but yeah you though of things I didn't.
>>
>>25452840
That is something I forgot about as well, if Chitty doesn't go on deep freeze most of the Queens, not spider themed sorry Arana she dies, survive.
>>
>>25452873
Wait, in this timeline it's actually possible Sciderella survives, as she was calling for Chitty post-Icing.

In a timeline when the ponies know about changelings and Chitania is alive to get her help, since Chitty wasn't able to be infected, it's possible that Celestia with some time and patience could eventually figure out a way to fix her all better. And since no Fawntaine yet, no hope of it hopping over to ponies, so they can take as much time as they need. Or, barring that, she figures out a way to put her in stone until a cure can be found.

Regardless, in this timeline Chitty's alive to pick up the phone when Sciddy hits Mind11 and answer the call, so no matter what happens she'd be likely to look after Arana no matter what, so Ara wouldn't go under ground.
>>
>>25452931
The cure for the cordy patch she falls in was still fire so she is dead (because we agreed on it), but yeah Ara could joining up with Chitty seems legit. But if you want the altruistic route We simply have to wait around for someone to tell Celly or eventually Twilight the DNA thing. In the mean time Sciddy has either rampaged or been imprisoned. And She becomes the blind jokes magnet is she survives.

>Pick all the fish
>Accidentally click Spongebob
>>
>>25453024
It's the Cure they had in that time line because they didn't care if she lived or died. But in this timeline, Larvesta is alive. She could tell her the DNA thing even if she doesn't already know it, and we don't know if old Megabus knows or not since you think she would be the first one Larvesta would tell.

Or, like said, she gets put on ice / rock until Twilight's time, in which case she'll survive until discord who could cure her very easily. Since there's no clone to absorb in this timeline.

And finally, no rampage. She was still sane when she called Chitty back in the day, and wasn't to the point where her handling Arana infected her. She could have made it there in time and easily subdued her worst case scenario. Being a Titan has its perks.

But if she did come back, she wouldn't be blind. The infection didn't make 88 blind. She shot herself in the face.
>>
>>25453085
Huh missed that detail with 88
Also yeah they probably would cure her between KCaFO and thread 1.
>>
I understand they are pissed at Rarity. They have every right to. But do we REALLY need to throw a non-harem character to the wolves and have them get despised by everyone in the Empire for us to write improvement and change to it? It's grating.
>>
>>25453361
Well option A was Sunset and you saw how that worked. This is option B, throw someone they can hate but not really punish under a bus. Option C is literally Cadence and 18 get over it and do it themselves. Option D was 18's issue, it has been setup forever and it was only used as an accessory to Rarity.
>>
>>25453361
Saying to the Wolves is a little disingenuous. She never interacted with any of them except for Cadence up till this point, and she hated Chrysalis, so this doesn't actually really change anything.

That said, I'm still feeling like this isn't going to in with them just hating Rarity, it seems to obvious a setup for something like that to go off. I mean, it's not like anybody still hate Sunset, even 18 and shiny got over that one. I really doubt this is just having it to where she's hated.

Or I'm totally wrong...
>>
>>25453447
Shiny has a little Murder hate for Sunset. Not as much as Chitty but it is there. 18 will shoot to kill if she steps a hoof in her office and wants nothing to do with her. Their last two interactions was 18 holding back murderous intent for Shiny and using Sunset literally like a chewtoy.
>>
>>25453494
Granted, and I am saying that as someone who likes Sunset and a character, Sunset kind of was a HUGE jerk about it.

Then again, Rarara's monologue about 'It's just wrong!' really reminded me of her. I guess they might get along in their mutual fear of Chrysalis, feeling of righteous indignation and the experience of being locked up in the Empire.

Though it feels as if Rarity actively HATEA Chris whereas Sunset is merely afraid of what she is capable of.

"Twilight"
'Cadence'
[Chrysalis]
{18}
(42)
~??~
~~~

Summing things up didn't take as long as Shining Armor thought it would.

>Rarity pretended to be Cadence then Cadence appeared in front of her and Eighteen's thing acted up and long story short now everyone knows that there's more Cadence's than just Cadence.

Mostly because it sounded like gibberish. That was a factor.

"...Okay, so, in equestrian this time?"

[I don't actually know what Rarity was doing, and neither does Cadence? She was being Caddy and then Shiny was with her on the date with Eighteen or something? I just teleported in and then there was Rarity being her right there. And then everything went wrong.]

"...Eighteen be the sane one."

{Rarity after some sort of event that involved her getting in a fight with someone got it in her head that she needed to see how everyone saw the royals. She picked Cadence due to the fact that, unlike Shining or Applejack or You or Celestia, Cadence is... lacking in how much actual work she does. We found her when she was shopping for wine, confronted her, and then Cadence teleported in at the worst possible time. After that, she seemingly had some sort of crisis, and long story short she revealed me to everyone and now they know I was involved with city planning and are a changeling. Then Cadence panicked and had Chrysalis bail with us, we brought her in here to the castle, she gave us the whole spiel, and then Chrysalis teleported her to the holding cell we had Sunset in because I'm pretty sure I was about to kill her and that option is still on the table if this ends up with me getting sent away and I want you to know that because you can't stop me and I will kill her.}

Practically the whole room noticed that, with every new word, it seemed someone was leaning ever so slightly on the thermostat and pushing it further and further down as time went on...

"...Not the sane one I was hoping for, but okay, got my answers. This situation is... a problem."

1/5
>>
>>25457582

[They won't do my plan to fix this by the way.]

"I don't blame them."

She didn't even try to hide the subtle little twitch anymore, she was that far gone.

"But... we might have to consider it? I don't want to point out the obvious, but..."

(Now it looks like Cadence has yet again been replaced by a changeling who is running things in her place, which normally is a precursor to invasion, which suddenly makes the rather large assembly of changelings in the stadium seem a touch suspect. That this fact was revealed by one of the Elements of Harmony adds yet another layer of suspicion, and essentially we now face an event wherein the ruling class is thought to be controlled by an outside force and the Empire is thrown into chaotic upheaval that may very well threaten the stability of the Crystal Heart and plunge the city into chilling eternal winter while also casting us all out in the metaphorical and literal cold.)

Everyone had known all of this, of course. It had been obvious from the very start just what this could mean.

Hearing it spoken out loud had not helped matters in the least.

"...Thank you, yes. Can always count on you to be blunt with us."

(I repeat my earlier statement of wishes to punch.)

"Still denied."

(Sure, I'll let you think that will stop me.)

That would have been a bit of humor to lighten the situation, had everyone not noticed her hoof tensing up ever so slightly, and the dead tone in her voice.

"I... I'm going to be blunt here, Shining, I don't know how to fix this..."

Somehow, that had been the worst thing said tonight. That Twilight, of all beings, couldn't find a way to fix things...

Chrysalis's earlier options were seeming more tempting to most already.

"But one thing I do know is, you have to let Rarity out, now."

[Excuse me?]

{Are you serious!?}

"I am! Listen, she... look, I know her, her heart was probably in the right place with this. No, it was certainly in the right place-"

{WELL LAH DEE FUCKING DAH!}

>>25457592

A glare, one rarely seen on his sisters normally kind face, was all that culled the dissident voice long enough for her to continue.

"AND... this can't look good if you keep her locked up, this looks more suspicious now."

[No, this looks sane now. Because this is what you do when someone pulls this shit!]

It was just like old times, they noticed. Changeling and pony, staring each other down.

It was not a time any present were particularly nostalgic for.

"Chrysalis, you can't just keep my friend locked up like this."

[Your friend may have just thrown a whole damn country into chaos, I think it's a little justified.]

"She didn't mean to do anything like this!"

[Well, she did! It happened, get it!?]

"Chrysalis, let her out. Now."

[Or. What.]

It was just like old times...

'Let her out.'

The low, whisper like voice was nonetheless enough to make everyone in the room jump. The thus far silent princess had a chilling nature to her voice, a low tone that none around had ever heard from her.

An emptiness.

[Cadence...]

'Just... let her out. It doesn't matter anymore, does it... it doesn't matter what her reasons were, it's just done. It's done, and... it's all my fault. I'll fix this.'

The phrase gave no confidence to any in the room. She moved like the living dead, stiff as she started her way towards the grand doors of her castle.

Her husband was behind her every step, at first. Wasting no time before dutifully following his love.

'Stay.'

It was only this command, as simple as it was, that could stop him.

'Just... everyone stay. Please.'

Every word, an unspoken admission of defeat. Every letter, weighted and heavy.

'Nobody...'

She looked back to them, at last. She was smiling, just like she had been before. That empty, hollow smile that had been there before.

'Nobody else is going anywhere. Okay?'

They thought, on some level, that it was meant to be reassuring.

They didn't feel it much right now.

>>25457606

'I'll... I'll handle this. I'm the princess, right? I'm the Princess of the Crystal Empire. This is my job, isn't it? To make sure everyone is happy and safe... this is what I'm supposed to do.'

>Cadence... you don't...

He tried to move forwards, tried to be with her, as he wished to be. As he knew he should be. That she was trying to go without him broke his heart a little more with every step, and all could see it.

They could feel it, changeling or no.

>You don't have to do this alone. Please, let me do this with you, please...

'Shining... you've covered for me enough.'

It hurt him, more than anything ever had. Be they the fires of a volcano or blows to the chest from a monster, nothing had hurt him as much as that had.

'I love you... all of you.'

She didn't wait for his response, already moving towards the doors. Already on her way out, before a single line could be spoken in return.

She was gone, before he had even opened his mouth.

>... Cadence...

The room was empty, no matter how many were within it. There was nothing there, no sound, nothing.

(Do you... think she can do it? Her power has always been in the sway she holds of her followers hearts, perhaps she can manage it?)

It was a dim hope, they would all admit.

It was all they had.

>She can do it... I'm sure of it.

It was all any of them had.

[Forty Two, get the changelings ready in case.]

All of them went tense, regardless of how well they knew it to be a truth that needs addressing.

"Maybe you should wait. They might just... ask for her to step down."

It hurt her, as deeply as all the others, to consider that Cadence may have to leave that which she was destined to do, but it was all she could think of to stave the situation.

[And? You think I'm staying if she leaves?... You think any of us are?]

There was something filling about that, as cold as this whole situation was. It was not merely the words she had spoken, or what they meant.

There was something more to it.

>>25457639


>Chrysalis, go let Rarity out.

[And what are you going to do?]

He smiled to them. It was not hollow, it was not empty, it was not defeated.

>I'm going to wait for the good news.

"You think she can... pull it off?"

It was a genuine, hopeful smile, that only he could have.

>...I know she can. She can do it, Twili... she can do it.

He believed it, every word. Be it through madness or a love none could ever put into words, he believed it, every single word.

>And I'm going to be here for her, when she does it. I believe in her.

The Queen, despite his command, did not move. Instead, her horn came alight, and the fire came to her magical call along it's obsidian twisted length. It was gone away, in no time at all, and without a single word they knew.

She was free.

>I'll wait, if you all want to go.

None of them, not a one, moved.

They were waiting, just as he was.

They were waiting, they were all there.

~What's goin' on...~

All together, when a sleepy little thing shuffled out of the hallway to their pricate rooms, holding a blanket in one hoof and rubbing her eyes.

They were all together, again.

>Mommy has to fix something, Sweetie.

~Is she okay?~

Despite her worried tone, despite her sleepy eyes flickering at all the uncertain faces, he smiled, and embraced her.

>She's going to be just fine.

Now, all they had to do was wait.

Wait... and believe.
>>
Ok so do tell me Rarity does have more to do with this.

We're not just shuffling her off stage, right?

~~~

She hadn't thought about it when she left. Hadn't thought about anything, really.

That, she knew, was the only way she could have done it. She knew if she thought about it, it would hit her. Much like it was hitting her now. She knew if she let a little of the thoughts in, they would all come crashing in.

Much like they were, right now.

>You have do to this.

Not "You can do this", for she did not know if that were true, she had to. Most certainly not "You want to do this," that much was obvious. She had to do this.

She had to do one thing right, finally.

>Just... get it over with.

To walk to the gallows would have been less harrowing. To walk to a certain doom would have been an easier stride. She understood walking to what may certainly be her end, she had done it before. She had done it against Chrysalis, against Chitania, and she would gladly do it again. She understood standing up for them when their lives were on the line, she was willing to lose her own if they could be safe. They were worth her life.

She wasn't so sure she was worth this.

It was not out of confidence that she had declared the others must remain behind, nor out of pride. No, it was simply the fact that if she were to fall any further into this seemingly endless hole she had dug herself, she wished to fall alone. She did not wish one more day when others would fall in her place, as was a terrifyingly real possibility this time.

Shining, Eighteen, Chrysalis... perhaps even her adoptive daughter. All of them were now to be scrutinized, perhaps removed, for her actions. She had to, if nothing else, direct the blame to where it needed to be. Where it deserved to be.

She knew, in her heart, that any of them would have gladly tried to shoulder the blame. Any of them would have stepped forwards and taken the blow, and she appreciated that. She loved them for that.

But she did not deserve that.

1/2
>>
This was her mistake, this was her failure, this was something only she could do, only she deserved to be held accountable for. She, and only she, could answer for this.

If she could at least keep those who actually deserved their place in theses halls where they belonged, then that was plenty. That was enough.

She knew, in her heart, in the powerful love that flowed magically in her veins, that they would leap with her off the edge of eternity if she were to go.

Which is why, in her heart... she knew she must fall alone.

If this is to be the end of the reign of her royalty, then it would be her end.

And no others.

>You have to do this.

A truth told strongly is not a truth told easily, not even to herself. She had to do this.

She had to lay her hooves upon the massive swinging doors that would lead her to the crowd gathering around outside, and she had to open them wide.

She had to look out into the endless sea before her, and she had to dive in.

If she were to fall into the end with this...

She would at least fall alone.

>There is something I have to tell you all...
