Pinkie Preview Prophecy

I think you mean...

Ohhhh myyyy~

>>27092394
There it is!

>>27092097
Hey, they're currently holding off the Mean Team, they're doing alright.

>>27092563
...If by "holding off" you mean "Getting curbstomped by", sure.

>>27092299
He's probably insured...

Probably.

>TFW waiting till next episode to see if we can do anything new with Spike

Man, I hope it doesn't suck.

>>27092836
>Hoping
>On a Spike episode

Anon...

>>27092836
Hope is the first step on the road of disappointment.

>>27092970
>>27093041
It's not over till the credits roll!

>>27092970
At least Spike still get some attention over there...

>>27093137
Well if you had just sent her home right away instead of going on a quest to invade someones not so personal diary, she might have taken him with her and then there could be nice contemplation and relaxing family moments. But noooo... BUT I CAN'T COMPLAIN!!! Keep it up fellas!

>>27093243
... why would she take Spike anyway? That would be kind of forced. He didn't do anything.

Pastebin really needs to be updated.

>>27093243
>We should have sent AJ down to the farm.
>Where she will be far away from the storyline currently happening
>And not learning anything new or advancing her character through understanding
>Or doing so because she is actually trying to fix the sunset situation
>Just should have left down to the farm the instant she got chewed out and lost

... starting to see why she got left out of the first three arcs

>>27093137
To be Fair, the attention shifted entirely to Rarity and AJ here recently, even more so than shiny, so it's all good.

>>27093536
Oh yeah, CE crew hasn't done anything in awhile. Not complaining, just think it's pretty interesting.

>>27093464
Let me ask you this... has she honestly learned anything to make herself better in the time since then till now?

How is she supposed to fix something now, when she hasn't got anything new in her brain? It's just the same old junk in their, mind you its good junk, but its the same junk. She hasn't learned anything, and learning about Chitty isn't gonna fix the issue with Sunset, it's just gonna help her understand Chitty... maybe.

So tell me, how is this gonna play out without any new cards at the table?

>>27093277
I meant figuratively, he could just decide to tag a long for comfort reasons. Also he could be a nice bridge into what happened with the girls.

Watched the new Jungle Book tonight.

...someone should write the Morlocks singing 'Wanna be like you'.

Just saying.

>>27093658
This is actually kinda true, she really doesn't have anything new. No new insights into herself, no epiphanies about stuff, nothing to make her stand above the level she is currently at. She literally has gained anything, now lost on the other hand... I'm pretty sure those videos on the computer killed quite a few brain cells.

>>27093799
I would kill for this! Really I would! Give me a knife, a vidcam, and another Anon and I'll stream it. Kill for it man, might even do unspeakable things... But yeah someone should totally do it.

>>27093464
>>27093658
Are we asking that same old meme question of 'how do we better AJ' again, in a different flavor, or am I tired and seeing things? Either way, I 'am' tired and going to bed, just curious if we were doing 'that' again.

>>27093878
>>27093878
Oh ooh be doo
We wish to being like you-ou-ou
We desire to walk like you
And to talk like you too-oo-oo

You are seeing it's true-ue-ue
Caveponies like we-ee-ee
Can learn to be normal ponies too-oo-oo~

>>27093893
It is the same, and pretty much just unintentional bait at this point.

It'd be more productive to just ignore it and write more stories with AJ in it.

>>27093878
We are part fight animu, so AJ doesn't have to learn anything. Just try again and she'll win. Even if she goes about it the same exact way, the change in circumstances will make it work.

or we'll just arbitrarily increase her powerlevel so she can take out megabug.

reminder that with a new ep board will speed up with shitposting, more if it is bad (it is a spike ep)

>>27095206
Meh not a big deal.

>>27093658
>Let me ask you this... has she honestly learned anything to make herself better in the time since then till now?

Yeah, end of the last thread. She found the passage that tells her about Chitanias hopes and dreams. She finally stumbled onto the exact moment all her life went wrong and it's almost certainly going to tie into this big battle. It's a setup.

Well if nothing else, this episode give a lot of unique Dragon designs

>Twilight

>And THAT right there is how you do a regime change, folks!

Wow, glad we didn't try to incorporate Dragon Town.

NC
>Spike
"???"
~~~~▪

>So I'm noticing this is mostly teenagers or young dragons.... where are all the adults?

"Pffft, you think they give a shit about this? I could barely even hold this damn thing. Nah, this is pretty much the Hunger Games for our amusement. "

>...huh.

>>27097480
Literally. They literally worked to ensure the next regime would be open to them.

MLP be fucked up, yo.

NC
>Spike
"Torch"
~~~

>So if all dragons pretty much do their own thing, none of them live together, and nobody really listens to each other, and none of them are friends, what exactly does a dragon lord do?

"He or she gets to order someone shorter around."

>...

"...that's about it."

>...

"You can also go burn stuff if you want, but we pretty much do that anyway."

>...

"...we're not big on hierarchy around here."

NC
>Chrysalis
"Celestia"
~

>....

"...what?"

>You scare me.

"...good."

>>27097382
And interesting lore.

Could be fun to play with the 'dragon lord' idea...

LAST THREAD RECAP, RARITY WHAT DID YOU DO EDITION!?
>Pinkie Pie and AJ, now having access to Chitty's diary, decide to start flipping through the entries.
>Many a short, darkly funny stories commence.
>88 gets the comic, only to learn it actually does belong to the owner of the house, and she's been betrayed! The one who hired her zaps the owners robot and runs off with the comic, leading to a massive chase through Canterlot during which she repeatedly forgets she can fly.
>Zecora, while hanging out with Tree Hugger, spots MM running through town, and gives chase after her friend.
>SA gets a staredown from 2, and he thinks it's because she caught on or Chrysalis told her whats up. Instead, he just has a booger... not a big deal.
>Luna is screwing with Trixie.
>Harry the Bear is apparently an effective peacekeeper.
>Celestia goes out to actually do something about Sunset, and finds the torn up remains of the doll version of herself.
>Devastated that Sunset no longer wants any part of her in her life, Celestia brings the doll's consciousness back to it's head, to learn of what transpired. Sadly, she doesn't remember much, but she does reveal that Sunset is working with Chitnia willingly and took the stone from her.
>Resolved, Celestia decides to get off her ass and actually do something.
>29 is relaxing in the tub dead to the world, and Acty and JJ notice that 32 stopped pulling on them. Worried with how long he's been down there, Actarius finally breaks down and asks what he's doing under there. 29 obliges, lazily pulling the other ling up from where he had been, somewhere around 29's lap, and with a sashay 32 creeps over to Acty and JJ and reveals what he has been doing this whole time.
>"I'm pulling your legs."
>Actarius and JJ have a good laugh, and then leave. 32 huffs that the first part didn't get a reaction, and blames 29's lack of acting. 29 gives no fucks, he's chill.
>Still, 32 says he can help work on said acting skills...
1/3

>>27099035
>At least, until MM races in screaming, and lands right on him. Zecora comes in soon after.
>A heart to heart happens where 29 and Zecora hugs MM and tells her she shouldn't be afraid of stuff like that anymore, she does a good job, and if anyone tried it they'd kick their ass.
>MM feels safe again.
>32 just gets annoyed he almost drowned, and stomps off with a huff. Upon learning of certain activities going on outside, he decides to go 'be an ambassador' and protect his hivemate.
>Nothing to do with revenge, no sir.
>Idris only notices Bonbon left. And when Lyra shows up on he scene, she is quick to leave, via flashes and jumping onto a train.
>The CMC, on their way to canterlot, realize they're bored, and wish something would happen. Then something happens, and they regret.
>SA sadly has to tell 2 her idea of marchmalley roads is not to be. But, after a talk about responsibility, she gets an idea...
>Blueblood might be racist.
>42 goes crazy with the teleports in training, and punches.
>That's when the guard has a brilliant idea, cadence plushies!
>This actually works, and they get some hits in. She still 'claims victory', though. Victory in this case meaning plushies.
>Twilight tries to bribe Chrysalis with a cake. This cake is apparently a sculpt of Applejack's ass.
>Twilight has a great many questions for Spike now.
>10 woners if the Hive Gazette needs her anymore, BBB puts that to rest.
>12 somehow knows everything is going wrong.
>FOR THE MAIN EVENTS
>Sunset thinks everything is going swimmingly, until someone says "Screw this"
>It turns out, the one saying it is one of many. Those many are the entire population of the restaurant they're currently in.
>The Canterlot Elite all arm their robots and activate their infusions, and one by one join Rarity's side, to help her like they did Applejack back at the Arm-Break incident.
2/4

>>27099052
>Rarity is emboldened by this, and thanks to being relieved she no longer has to fear being thought less of, challenges Sunset in the hopes she'll jump.
>Instead, Chitania thinks Rarity is after her, and upon seeing her daughter banging her head against the table and grumbling actually tries to end the fight before it begins, so that 13 will not run off.
>However, she doesn't get more than a "I'm not" out, before one of the Canterlot ponies panic when she moves towards them and shoots her right in the eye. When she actually feels pain from this, the others lay it on in an attempt to put her down.
>It doesn't work.
>And now she is very... very mad.
>Sunset is happy though.
>During this, Sunset has a mental conversation with 13, who is preparing to leave this before it gets bad. She points out that her mother was trying not to fight, that they started it, and that the shot to her eye was a magic that would have been lethal to anyone else, and could have been lethal to her mom. Despite this, when she was weak, they tried to finish her off.
>Reluctantly, 13 comes around to seeing what she means, and begins to doubt that the ponies are as good as her Queen claims them to be. If for no other reason than that, she joins the fray.
>Sweet Note doesn't need pushing, she just gets to showing them how they do it down at the docks.
>With the occasional help from 32 who is 'looking after his hivemate', of course.
>Things are going badly, as nobody can even slow Chitania down, Rarity and Dash included.
>The Titan is overcome by rage, as she is now sure that her daughter will never want to spend time with her again like she just did, and she doesn't know if she should anyway, and this is leading to a lot of punches.
>As a last ditch effort, Dash tries to hit her with a Rainboom, just like she did back at the train, but this time Chitania is prepared, and blocks it, badly injuring the pegasus.
3/4

>>27099068
>When Sunset starts mocking her, a frantic Rarity tries to shoot her, but Sunset dodges ever time, until it ends when the Queen hits Rarity.
>She's not down, but she might be out...
>With Pinkie and AJ, after getting frustrated reading page after page, AJ starts frantically flipping through them.
>Pinkie tries to stop her, and she does when Aj breaks down and reveals that the reason she's so desperate is despite Chitty being here all this time, she didn't learn anything. She knows nothing about her foe, and when she tried to stop her from taking Sunset, she couldn't, and it was all her fault.
>Pinkie cheers her up and gives her support, because that's what Pinkie does.
>And just in time, because in her frantic flipping, it seems they landed on exactly what they needed to...
>Chitania's diary entry that say "I'm pregnant".

As always if I missed something, it's because I'm a terrible person who is out to get you specifically.
It's because of that thing you did.
You know the thing, don't play that game.

>>27096478

Ok, let me get this straight here...

AJ and everyone else messed up with Sunny...

Sunny get fixed and AJ and the rest get upset at this cause "how!? Impossibru!?"

Sunny basically says all these asshats go fuck themselves cause they didn't care, which was true.

Chitty comes in to get Sunny cause she didn't want her wondering off. This is where Chitty comes into things from their point of view here, remember this.

So Sunny is all fuck you and I'm going to help my new bosslady cause she helped me!

Drama+

Drama++

Sunset and Chitty go on their way...

AJ and Celestia know they screwed and are planning to solve issues. Twilight is more... is less... idk and really don't care, purple smart is at an all time low for me.

So, this is where we are now.

Celestia is on the verge of getting shit done cause and is going to actively start doing stuff, to our knowledge instead of the implied stuff, for her people and her country. YAY FUCKING YAY FOR SUNBUTT!!!

... And now we have AJ who apparently has forgotten to feel those almost not regrets, about Sunny, cause apparently the "Episode" ended and nothing of value was retained for the sake of the future plot.

And now that we are on the next "Episode" the best way to "fix things" apparently, is to dig up shit on Chitty, cause shes apparently the defacto big baddy and beating her is gonna solve all those issues.

This is what were doing? Right? This is what I'm seeing here? Not becoming a better princess/person, but instead learning to "hit" the "badguy" where is hurts? Cause that's gonna solve everything?

>If ah hit her where it hurts ah will learn all the lessons and become a better Princess!

Are you serious? This is what we're doing? No becoming better, the hard but smart way, its easier to just beat the badguy?

I can't tell if I'm sicked or just disappointing in both of you and her by proxy.

>>27099113
Pretty much. Its hard to write character development for AJ. Shes a background character after all.

>>27099113
>Twilight is more... is less... idk and really don't care, purple smart is at an all time low for me.

She's trying to bribe Chrysalis(in what Spike called a bit of a jerk move) to ask 13 to ask her mom to talk with her, trying to use Chitty's love of her daughter to learn the secret of how she fixed Sunset, since she knows 13 is still loyal and obeys Chrysalis.

>... And now we have AJ who apparently has forgotten to feel those almost not regrets, about Sunny, cause apparently the "Episode" ended and nothing of value was retained for the sake of the future plot.

Exact opposite, she's lost entirely in regrets that she couldn't stop Chitty and is now desperate to find something in Chitty's diary that will let her get close enough to Titanbug to fix her relationship with Sunset, be it through understanding or bribery, she doesn't care which. She regrets that she ignored both her student and the threat Chitty posed and is now determined to find anything at all to rectify this, and her only lead is the the diary, which she learned about from her previous lead Arana.

>And now that we are on the next "Episode" the best way to "fix things" apparently, is to dig up shit on Chitty, cause shes apparently the defacto big baddy and beating her is gonna solve all those issues.

This is her trying to rectify shit with Sunset, Chitty's just who she sees as "In the way", because she couldn't stop her.

>Not becoming a better princess/person, but instead learning to "hit" the "badguy" where is hurts?

Opposite, she said she couldn't think of any way to talk to her to make her stop at the end of last thread.

>Are you serious? This is what we're doing?
Seeing as I just said "Opposite" for the only two points you made...

>I can't tell if I'm sicked or just disappointing in both of you and her by proxy.

Well, I hope this makes you feel better.

>>27099113
>for her people and her country.

...She just said she was going after Sunset, the fuck did you get "For her people" from?

>This is what were doing? Right? This is what I'm seeing here? Not becoming a better princess/person, but instead learning to "hit" the "badguy" where is hurts? Cause that's gonna solve everything?

Oh yeah, because understanding your foe who just curbstomped you and walked the fuck away isn't being a better person.

What, do you think she's looking for Chitty to write down "Oh, and by the way, I apparently have this reeeealllyyy tiny spot behind my ear, and if you hit it I just fall apart. Weird!" It's her DIARY.

>No becoming better, the hard but smart way, its easier to just beat the badguy?

Okay, I think you're getting mixed up with "I'm going to be a better princess" with "I need to fix my mistakes", they're not the same in this context. Her mistake is to SUNSET, she's not going out and going to fix EQUESTRIA, that would make no damn sense for her mind to be on that. She's out to fix HER RELATIONSHIP, and when she tried last time, a bigass megabug knocked her down and walked away, so she's trying to find a NON-COMBATIVE way to get around that. Remember, her first idea was to go to Arana and ask her what might work for that, the diary only happened because Ara overheard Twi talking about it.

>I can't tell if I'm sicked or just disappointing in both of you and her by proxy.

I know which one I am.

You can do better, anon.

Cause this one is literally all about fighting Chitty.

>>27096478
>Yeah, end of the last thread. She found the passage that tells her about Chitanias hopes and dreams. She finally stumbled onto the exact moment all her life went wrong and it's almost certainly going to tie into this big battle. It's a setup.

And this one is hoping to find the McGuffin for the up and coming bacttle with Chitty.

If you aren't either of these two, and I'm pretty sure you're not. Then I didn't ask you, I'm trying to instill a sense of, "This is what you're hoping for and its shit." in to these two.

While I do feel better slightly, that still doesn't fix these two from wanting 'dumb fight apple'

Not the Anon you replied to, but are you telling me you wouldn't want Celestia to start doing things for her people?

She's getting off her ass to do things, why does it have to JUST have to be about Sunny? I mean she could be the catalyst for so much more, but why does she have to be the one and only focus here?

>>27099347
He's not one of them, I'm the bottom one.

>And this one is hoping to find the McGuffin for the up and coming bacttle with Chitty.

She's not looking fore a battle, though. I was saying she found something to help her understand Chitania better at the end of the last thread, and that's going to tie into the fight. I'm actually hoping it doesn't lead to some sort of powerup or anything, because that would be character regression. Last thread she said she never even tried to understand Chitty, and when it came down to it and she needed to stop her, she couldn't think of any way to do it. Not in a combative sense, but that she couldn't appeal to Chitty as a person. I loved that revelation reveal, that she understands she only ever saw Chitty as a nuisance or a foe, and as a result when it came down to it she didn't understand her and how to make her stop. That was a great moment, especially Pinkie's part.

I'm not looking for dumb apple fight, I'm looking for her to see where Chitty's life all started to fall apart and learn to understand others as individuals. Not sympathetic, but in the political sense of how to talk to them even when they're being combative.

>>27099412
>Not the Anon you replied to, but are you telling me you wouldn't want Celestia to start doing things for her people?

Well, I would, but that's not what she was doing.

>She's getting off her ass to do things, why does it have to JUST have to be about Sunny?
Because she was talking to her dollversion's head about Sunset, got a revelation about what Sunset is doing, and then decided she's going to go do something about it?

In the grander sense, maybe, but that "I'm getting off my ass and doing something" is purely directed at Sunset and Chitty, not getting back to her office and getting to work.... either that or the author waaaayyyy missed the mark on describing it.

>>27099441
>That was a great moment

I've got to agree. I was one of those who didn't like the "Rush off" ending that got NC'd pretty much for that reason, cause it meant AJ was just going into a fight without learning anything up to that point. But this?

>...she's been here this whole time, but when it came down to it... she was right there, she was right in front of me, and she was takin' Sunset away, and Ah' didn't know... anythin'. Ah' didn't know what ta' say, what ta' offer her, just... how ta' make her stop, in anyway. She's been here this whole time, Ah've made deals with her, and Ah' even got saved by her once, but Ah' just don't know anythin' about her. Ah've made the big choices... but Ah' don't feel like Ah' really learned anything.

That's character growth right there, getting smacked with the reality that she treated Chitania like a pest, and it came back to bite her hard. She's worked with her, but she didn't understand her, so she's working on fixing that.

I still very much want a fight, but I want one where Aj's learned something and it's much more character driven. Still want a battle, cause Aj VS Chitty kicks ass.

>>27099467
I hope, the author missed the mark. Having Celestia around might make the others shape up. Sure a lot of the reverence is gone but she's still the boss lady.

~~~~

Changeling number Thirteen, drone in Queen Chrysalis's army, hated violence.

She hated war, she hated battle, she hated all of it. Partly, she would admit, because of her frame not being able to handle much. She was always sickly, always weak, so the prospect of a fight never appealed to her at all.

Partly, she hated it because her mother. After seeing so many fights and battles in her life, she'd had her fill. Her mother attempting to make her into a warrior herself did not help matters in the least.

Being surrounded by it right now was not fun, in the least.

"You horrid bug thing! I'll show you-"

>What it looks like when you get electrocuted.

"What are you-WHA!"

Any watching would only see a stallion slip, and fall right onto his own electrically enchanted hoof.

"Butterblossm! Shoot that-"

>Chandelier.

"-Chandelier? Wha- NO WAIT!"

Too late, the robot followed her 'slip of the tongue' to the letter, and down it came on her head.

"You and me, Changeling! Let's go!"

>Fine, but watch out for the nail.

"Watch out for the what-OW OW OWWW!"

If she was lucky, the unicorn that had challenged her could hop away before things got worse.

One by one, that's how everyone who tried to fight her fell. They slipped, they messed up, they fell down and hurt themselves. She never lifted a hoof, never ordered or did anything to make them do so. Her horn didn't even glow.

All the same, they kept falling.

And she kept walking. All with one goal in mind.

She soon found herself face to face with a certain stallion in the crowd, one she had sought out specifically, and never wavered from as she followed. When he noticed her, his eyes went wide, and his unicorn horn was charged in an instant.

"What do you want, you unseemly bug!"

>Hello, mister Logic Fault?... I have some questions.

Changeling number Thirteen did not like violence, she did not like fighting, she did not like any of this.

That said, she did not fail to see the merit, on occasion.

Well, 13 and SN aren't jerks. Sweet Note is actually pretty sweet, pardon the pun, and 13 is an all around loyal and decent changeling who doesn't like conflict or fighting.

Chitty and Sunset are bitches though.

>>27102456
In case you missed it, 13 LOVES tongue whipping everyone who isn't in her Hive, harms her Hive or is generally being dumb. She's got a really snarky attitude to her.

And SN will go straight to 'fuck y'all bitches' if you mention the princesses.

Chrysalis's nonchalance is what sold that.

Questions about Dollestia: how long has this thing been in existence, what's its' purpose, and what exactly is it?

>>27103501
Since Sunset was a little kid studying under Celestia, a practice run to make a dreamstone using a sliver of the essence of Celestia, and a doll previously infused with a stone containing the dreams and personality of old, lazy Celestia that Sunset made for company, respectfully.

>>27103530
>a practice run to make a dreamstone using a sliver of the essence of Celestia
How did she capture the 'essence' of Celestia into this stone? Through blood, magic?

>a doll previously infused with a stone containing the dreams and personality of old, lazy Celestia
Pretty much the same question here as well: how did she put said dreams and personality into that stone? Did she whisper to it, magically implant it somehow?

>>27103575
>How did she capture the 'essence' of Celestia into this stone

Possibly was donated? I'm not sure if that part was ever explained, but Celestia knew about it and even put in a 'backup' in the doll's eyes just in case the stone was ever removed, but for sure not blood, the non-prototype stone(the one that shot her in the chest) didn't need direct contact to get the dream imprint.

>how did she put said dreams and personality into that stone?
It has to be placed near someone when they sleep, and it sort of 'records' that, I think. It didn't work on the changelings due to them being guarded(because changelings, mind control, you know the drill), but it managed to pick up the latent connection of the Hivemind in there, which is how she eventually was connected to Variolus.

Hopefully the author can explain it better.

Adding on to this. Someone Celestia is ideal intervenes, causes the Canties to stop and surrender themselves. Chitty is asked to surrender too. She is then convinced to surrender by 13, who reassures/calms her mother down, Chitty concedes on the condition that they all share a cell.

Celestia then gets to do something important here by being the voice of authority in her city and the bearer of judgment of anything that goes on in it.

Discounting the whole "Chitty would rather break Canterlot to pieces than actually be contained again because of bad memories involving ice" and "She would rather spit fire again with all the downsides than be arrested for hitting a bunch of morons who shot her", the biggest reason I see her not actually going with that is "She'd rather chew nails and become a living machine gun to singlehandedly fight all of Equestria than let her daughter get put in prison for any reason, even temporarily, and especially for something she did."

I dunno, feels really contrived to resolve the situation just to make it look like Celly's got the pull, when she really does not with Chitty and especially Sunset, who would most certainly never surrender.

>>27104481

>>27104673
>just to make it look like Celly's got the pull, when she really does not with Chitty and especially Sunset,

Oh she's not their for them, shes their for her little ponies. Her poor... stupid... racist... retarded little ponies. Someone has to care, if for no other reason, just because someone has too. But i do see your point about not wanting 13 to be put in tha situation.

That whole bad memories thing though, just doesn't really work at all, she doesn't remember anything from her imprisonment. When she "busted out" she thought she had just gotten out from under a mountain that had just been smashed on top of her, not imprisoned in ice for centuries.

>>27104673
Sunset is the real problem there, no way would she let Chitty call it quits and she sure as hell wouldn't agree to any of that. It would just take some prodding from her implying this was all a setup to lock her up for showing up the princesses and Chitty would go back into defensive mode, which is what Sunny would want. If 13 actually did tell her mom to surrender, she probably would, but only on the condition nobody touch 13, but that just leaves a lot of opening for Sunset to exploit.

She knows Chitty now officially has nothing to lose, they can't do anything to her now, especially since her relationship with her daughter is, Chitty thinks is at least, shot. They've got nothing, and this rampage against the royals is what Sunset wants.

Celly could try to lay down the law all she wants, it would just give Sunset more fuel to put in the ragetrain, because if there's one pony who Sunny wants to see get her teeth knocked in, it's Celestia.

>>27104673

>>27104808
>That whole bad memories thing though, just doesn't really work at all, she doesn't remember anything from her imprisonment

She still freaks out when she gets hit by cold stuff. It doesn't even hurt her or slow her down, it just makes her panic. See the Train Fight or the Fillydelphia Rumble for more. She doesn't remember anything about the time in the ice, it just triggers her thinking about it, and all that she lost and what it meant. It wasn't the ice itself, it's what she woke up to. That's why her getting locked up again would be just as bad as being in the ice, she knows what she could lose now.

>>27104842
Its the ice though, not the though of being imprisoned. If it was putting her back on ice then yeah I'd agree but its not the thought of prison itself. She probably knows she could bust out of any place they put her in though.

>not the though of being imprisoned

What? The ice just makes her remember, it's not like she actually cares about the ice itself. She remembers being locked up and missing everything, it's not like she's weak to cold. Just the opposite, it probably saved her life.

>>27104887
No no no, let me separate this for easy understanding.

Yes, the cold makes cause her to remember what happened to her and it causes a bit of panic.

No, the though of imprisonment does not cause her to panic because she could break out of any normal prison.

If she was threatened to be put back into an Ice Prison, then I could agree with this
>"Chitty would rather break Canterlot to pieces than actually be contained again because of bad memories involving ice"

>>27104945
Why do I keep missing that last 't' in thought!?

>>27104945
>No, the though of imprisonment does not cause her to panic because she could break out of any normal prison.

This kinda implies she wouldn't assume they made some way to contain her in the last... year, I guess, since she emerged.

She'd freak out specifically because she would assume that, regardless of what they said, she's most certainly not going to a regular prison, and that's why it would trigger her bad. After all, she's in the process of beating the marshmallow out of a prison, why would she assume they wouldn't lock her up in a place that could hold her? I mean, who's that for? If they don't care if she can walk free, the locking her up is pointless and just symbolic of showing they can contain her if she steps out of line, which she wouldn't like. And if they do care, they'll put her in a place that can actually hold her, or at least they think it can. She knows how that went last time, hence the bad memories involving ice, why wouldn't she get a repeat vision there?

Like, what's Celestia supposed to say here. "Stay locked up, giant monster who just attacked royalty and we all hate, it's just so we can treat you fairly!"

>>27105018
>out of a prison

A ROYAL, holy shit what a fuckup.

>>27105018
Alright, say I agree with you, see things from your point of view... There is still one massive flaw in your logic.

We haven't had them build one, have we? No plans for it, nothing of the sort being made. Why? Cause she was pardoned and was expected to play nice since she couldn't go anywhere else without being hunted down by other countries.

It's not an option that can just be pulled out of one of their wonderful plots, and more importantly out of one of the Authors ass.

Just magically having something being done? Bad writing mate.

As much as my idea is OOC for her character, your sound reasoning falls apart with what I just said.

>>27105100
>We haven't had them build one, have we? No plans for it, nothing of the sort being made

Not him, but here's where that line of logic falls apart.

Why would CHITTY think that? Why would she think nothing was being made? You're correct, nothing had been made, the question here is why SHE would think that.

>>27105100
>There is still one massive flaw in your logic.
>We haven't had them build one, have we? No plans for it, nothing of the sort being made.

That's not what I said, though. I said she would assume they had a way to hold her that they built in the last year she's been running around. And why wouldn't she? Why would she think that, because she was pardoned, they're suddenly going to give up? She knows they didn't like it, and are just waiting for her to slip up again so they can lock her up/kill her, likely the latter.

The question was not whether or not such a prison existed, we haven't said it did so we have to assume it wasn't built, the question is how the character herself would think on the subject. To reiterate

> After all, she's in the process of beating the marshmallow out of a prison, why would she assume they wouldn't lock her up in a place that could hold her? I mean, who's that for? If they don't care if she can walk free, the locking her up is pointless and just symbolic of showing they can contain her if she steps out of line, which she wouldn't like. And if they do care, they'll put her in a place that can actually hold her, or at least they think it can.

This is all about what the character would, quite reasonably, assume on the matter, and have no way to think it doesn't exist, hence the triggering of memories.

>>27105100
>sound reasoning

It's not even sound reasoning! Chitty shouldn't be worried at all BECAUSE she was pardoned and she would have played nice and quiet. If it hadn't been for Rarity being uppity just now, everything would still be nice and dandy!

I can admit that Chitty probably isn't gonna get out of this without a black smear. But she didn't cause this, everything here, all the blame, can be put on the shoulders of the oh so noble Princesses. She wouldn't be scared of being told to "sit still here while we deal with this shit" she'd either wouldn't because fuck them or would if her daughter told her too so thing could actually be worked out with the chance of fair justice.

She wouldn't be scared period. Silent anger at most, but not scared in the slightest.

>>27105131
>>27105168
I point you at this guy, I'm tired of this conflict.

>>27105170
Isn't that the problem though? She played nice, she just sat down to eat, and a royal was the one who started all this. She was pardon all her crimes were supposedly let go, and they still just out of nowhere started something and took a shot at her that might have actually done some damage, after forming a mob to get rid of her no less. And remember, this all happened because a princess just out of nowhere walked up to her and started all of this. For as far as she can tell, upstaging them.

Why the hell would she think she's getting a fair shake from any of the others? Especially one of the ones she publicly defied and humiliated? She wouldn't be scared, she would just be assuming that the worst was going to happen. And why would she think differently? It would be all too easy to pin the blame on her now

>>27105252
The problem is *we*, the audience, know there's no special prison and the fact a princess started all this is pure accident and Celly/Twi/AJ aren't in on it, but how the fuck is anyone going to convince Chitania of that? No way would she believe anyone who said this.

Kinda miss the Apple, right about now...

>>27105170
Technically its all sunsets fault, for causing drama in her ever present mood of no fucks. She caused all their eyes to lock onto Chitty. If she had just contained herself instead of running around and going straight to them to tell them off. Chitty would not have the eyes of the princesses on her.

>>27105334

>the fact a princess started all this is pure accident

Actually all that was the Nobles fault, not Rarity's. You see the nobles and citizens of Canterlot actually have a very justified reason for causing problems, no matter how stupid it is to act on it consider who is involved.

If someone ruined your home/business and neighborhood and then was pardoned of the crime wouldn't you jump at almost any chance to get back at them, if it could be done even semi legitimately? They wouldn't care that she was pardoned, they have personal grudges!

A princess shows up and starts shouting at the person of their ire? That is a shining beacon that reads "THIS IS OUR CHANCE! The Canties were waiting to cause trouble and Rarity was the perfect window of opportunity to do it.

So really you can't blame Rarity for causing the current fighting, causing drama sure but if they had fired the first shot I'm sure Chitty could have actually talked Rarity into not doing 'this' right now. Who knows where we could have gone from there... all I see is combat now though... GLORIOUS COMBAT!

>>27105401
Slaughter you mean, the Canties can't fight on equal terms, so its actually slaughter... glorious as it might be. :P

>>27105401
>I'm sure Chitty could have actually talked Rarity into not doing 'this' right now

Oh, for sure. That's what makes it so tragic. If she had just been allowed to finish her sentence, it is highly likely that Rarity would have just said she didn't even care about Chitty and was only talking to Sunset. That would have diffused the whole situation if she could have just gotten out a word, and Rarity would have likely bucked off or something.

This whole thing was an accident, but that's the whole point of it, nobody cares about anybody but themselves and it only looking out for their own interest. Conflict of the story and all that.

Good night fellas

>>27094194
The full song is formulating...though I had an intereting idea.

There's more lyrics in the new movie. I'm thinking of writing the first parts singing about how they want to live like the ponies do but can't with the sun doing what it does to them...with the second part being Coltsly saying she'll help them get more suits if they give her one of the two they have. Basically promising them the world in exchange for what they don't realize is giving Fawntaine the chance to yoink some more Twience tech.

Thoughts?

With how every royal has been essentially daring her to break (AJ even taunted her at one point), it would seem to her that they at least have a plan.

>>27105368
Then the fault goes back to Twi/Celly/AJ for not trying the past 40 threads. Sunset, her current lack of fucks, and her deal with Chitty, that is all on bookhorse literally not doing anything after the first day. If she had seen even 1 update on her condition when she checked, Sunset would have contently sat and waited for them to finish helping Dash because of Rarity's other fuckup.

She's not a fugitive, she was never convicted of a crime or anything. There's no trial or anything, and she was never issued a warrant out for her arrest, nor did she actually do anything illegal. Unless you count insulting royalty illegal.

Sunset doesn't currently have a warrant out for her arrest, so she's not on the run or anything.

“???”
‘Dollestia’

>…Right.

There were days when all she wanted to do was eat cake. Eat cake and nothing else. Eat cake like her limited edition solar-flared triple chocolate strata cake (which cost about as much as one months rent in Ponyville) and just let Applejack handle the paperwork.

But, not only was that cake expensive as all Tartarus, sitting back and eating cake seemed to create more problems in the long run than it solved.

‘Is that our stomach growling?’

>Yes- well, mine, but I do suppose if you are me and in such close proximity that you’d also think it yours even if you are technically without a stomach.

‘…Okay. Are we hungry?’

>We are indeed hungry. Famished even. Though, this would be the type of hungry solved not with nourishment, but accomplishment. And to that end, we’re about to solve a problem we recently caused….

‘Does it have to do with the little one?’

A glimmer of discontent flickered in Celestia’s eyes but it was gone by the time that magically infested doll gazed up at her, gone and replaced with a smile just as warm and masking as in the before times.

>No. I’m afraid that in order to deal with that particular problem, we’ve got to take babysteps, we’ve got to start small and work our way up. Time is of the essence but to further bungle this would, I fear, result in drastic consequences, and we don’t want that, do we?

The doll shivered where it hovered, profusely shaking its head.

‘N-no.’

>Precisely. So, to start with, we’re going to abolish the need for long-term ‘lessons’, especially those that rely on sending your charge out to learn on their own. While that by itself has its own merits, if the charge in question is not even ready for the task, why bother loosening your grip on them in the first place?

The doll remained silent, merely observing the glow that overtook Celestia’s lengthy, marble-esque horn.

1/?

>>27110405

>I do hope he’s not too far away, or this could be a touch painful….

‘What do you mea-’

Exactly what Celestia meant, Dollestia found out when the wall next to them seemed to groan with pressure.

‘Umm, Celestia?’

>Stand back, dear. Er, float back, rather.

‘Why? What’re you-’

With all the force of Pinkie’s party cannon being fired on full blast, a sizeable chunk of the wall blew out in a rush of rubble and debris-

“AAAGH!”

-and a single bewildered stallion, protected by the glow of Celestia’s magic.

While Dollestia blinked, utterly startled, Celestia’s gaze was drawn to the suitcase dragged in with her pupil, and she smiled.

>For once, I am on time.

‘J-Jetset? Is that… are you okay?’

Inhaling some of the dust on his yell, Jetset’s coughing fit made answering quite difficult.

“P-Princess! I- *kaff*! I’m s-sorry about my appear- *coughcough* my appearance! I didn’t-”

‘Jetset!’

Still trying to regain his balance, Jetset was nearly bowled over when Dollestia’s head rammed into his cheek.

‘It’s good to see you again!’

“Y-yes, you too, Mini-Queen.”

The nuzzling stopped almost instantly.

‘…I thought I told you to stop calling me that.’

“When you cease to be something other than a miniature version of my Queen, I will.”

>Jetset.

As the called agent snapped into proper stance, Celestia also noticed that his shades, which were just as infamous as he, were missing and that his mane was completely out of synch, tufty and all over the place.

No. No that simply would not do.

>You seem to have a suitcase with you. Were you thinking of taking a little journey? Perhaps a vacation?

“I… Well, I-”

2/?

>>27110433

>You do know protocol states that if any off-time is required, you have to inform your sister, my assistant, before any such freedoms can be granted, yes? If you were to sneak off without so much as a ‘goodbye’ then how in Equestria am I to function properly without my shadow?

‘Yeah, how?’

Dollestia’s follow-up chirp was wholly unnecessary, though Jetset continued to stare at the princess, the look in his eyes more fatigued and troubled than Celestia had ever seen.

“You… when you took away my… I-I mean, I’m sure you had good reason b-but—”

>No I didn’t.

The admission came so suddenly, so easily said with that soft tinkling laugh of hers, that in addition to stopping Jetset’s babbling, it caused his cheeks to glow.

“What…?”

>Little one, I would ask that you never place me on so high a pedestal that it blinds you to potentially disturbing choices I make, concerning you or any other.

A single glance away of the stallion’s eyes was all too telling, but he refocused.

“I stand by the notion that you must have had a good reason, my Queen.”

>And I did. It was a good reason, fueled by laziness. I didn’t want to take part in fixing your world when it was clearly crumbling… so I opted to strip you back to the basics and then have you reteach yourself. That… is not the sign of a good teacher. That’s the sign of a teacher caught up in the bakery’s next cake sale instead of her aid’s well-being.

It couldn’t be any more obvious that Jetset felt the exact opposite, given how he sucked in his lips and the way his right eye twitched. Celestia’s smile grew warm.

3/?

>>27110448

>I don’t proclaim to be the greatest thing created, little one, despite that somehow being the mindset you have of me. While I do control the sun, and I am the current ruler of Equestria, there are many things I don’t know, and I’m smart enough to know that I don’t know them.

“I… where are you going with this, my Queen? If there’s anything you wish to know, ask, and I’ll hunt down the answer!”

The oddest sound, like paper rustling in the breeze, emanated from the head of Dollestia, and one could only assume it was laughing without actually laughing.

>You miss my point, Jetset. Before I summoned you, you were planning on leaving, weren’t you?

“…Only for a little while-”

>Because I locked away your ability without a single word or hint as to how to get it back. Does that not seem foolish? To leave the blind to their own devices?

Jetset had the strangest quirk wherein he would glance away, then right back, whenever something was said that he agreed with but didn’t want to exactly vocalize. Celestia had learned of this during his training days and found it endearing that the trait hadn’t been stomped out.

So when he did it again, she nodded.

>I gathered as much. So, in effort at bettering myself, I am going to cease these needlessly complicated lessons. You will need help to gain this calm I want for you, and I will be there to give it. But before I give that, I must give this.

Celestia closed the gap between herself and Jetset so quickly that it put into Jetset’s mind she’d always been within touching distance.

>To be quite honest, I don’t miss possessing this ability, I always thought it suited you best, little one, so to you I return it.

And when the tip of her horn touched his, a light more piercing than the sharpest blade burst from Jetset’s eyes, and from his mouth, which was open in a silent scream.

‘…Well, darn.’

4/?

>>27110470

The light came and the light went, leaving Jetset slumped over, wisps of steam rising off his twitching figure.

Yet, somehow Celestia knew….

>Beyond that, however, I can’t help but notice the absence of your-

Yes, when Jetset vanished with that uncanny gust of wind, she knew….

>Ah, there we go.

That she had righted one of many wrongs. For the Jetset that reappeared before her had his mane slicked back and donned a pair of familiar silver shades that glinted.

“You were saying, my Queen?”

>I was saying I have business I must take see to, little one, and you can choose to be my shadow or you can choose to stay here. Whichever way you go, once this is over, remind me to introduce you to Twilight’s simulation room. I do believe the both of us might have good use for it.

There was no response, only a nod, and then Celestia and her doll-counterpart were the only beings visible in the now partially ruined hall.

She felt his presence, oh absolutely, and it felt stronger than in recent memory.

>Well. Onward, yes?

‘Yes! …Though shouldn’t you fix the wall first?’

>No, I don’t think I will. What I will do, however, is send a note to Raven so she can get some certified ponies down here to fix it, ponies who could use the experience and bits for a job.

The princess smiled ever so regally at hovering effigy of herself.

‘We… we’re really going to make changes for the better, aren’t we?’

>Yes we are. For the better, for all of us.

"Logic Fault"
~~

He'd already shot at her at least three times, and it hadn't even been a single minute passed.

>Just a moment of your time, that's all this will take.

"Go away you pest!"

The older, much more wizened pony was likely confused that not a single bolt of his actually hit her, always managing a stumble or a poorly timed sneeze just as soon as he fired it and launching wildly into the crowd, striking fellow pony and machine alike. Even as strange as it was, her horn was dim and unlit, and to him that meant there was no magic to be had. Instead, he blamed it all on being off his game in his older years.

>I just have to know... why did you do it?

"I said begone, you ugly thing!"

She felt the beam whizz past her face, leaving a tingling sensation on her cheek. The pony behind her who suddenly fell to convulsions wished they were so lucky.

>Is it because you were afraid of her, is that it? I get being afraid of her, I saw Queen Changelings shake when she walked up to them. I saw monsters be afraid, because she was the bigger monster. I get that. Was that it? Were you just afraid? I'll accept that.

"Why won't you leave!?"

The electric bolt should have found her no matter how she moved. Would have, likely, if a mech had not been bumped by another unicorn into range, and taken the full power of the lightning instead.

>Were you looking for glory? An old wizard, long since past his prime, looking for one last shot to end up in the papers, and a medal on his chest? Was it just your one last shot to be noticed? I get that too. I get having aspirations, and having no way to ever realistically achieve them. I get seeing your one shot, and being overcome with the need to take it while it's there. I get that.

"HOLD STILL-AHCOO!!"

She didn't even feel the fireball. It flung so wildly to the side, she barely even noticed the heat. The pony who's mane was shortly set ablaze felt it a lot more than that.

>Was it... revenge?

1/4

>>27110493

Her body shook for a second, a bit of tiredness making it hard to stand up for the brief moment, before she could steady herself again.

>You know, that one makes the most sense to me. Wanting revenge hurts. Wanting to strike back at someone who hurt you that is so far beyond what you're capable of, wanting to hit them like they hit you even though you know they're just too strong to take on, or even damage, that's something I know. With her especially, I know that. She hurt you, and you wanted to hurt her back... was that it? Or...

His teeth grit, and something strange began to dance on his horn. The same thing she had seen from across the room, when he had been looking at the Titan that raged. The same thing that had drawn her to him, but he had not used on her.

Not yet.

>Or... did you just see a monster who needed to be put down, something that you hated for what she was, and what she had done? Did you see a beast, a creature, that will one day destroy everything, and you had to make her dead?... I understand that too, you know. I've seen monsters, I've lived with monsters, I know what it's like to see something you know simply can't go on living in this world, and needing to take action. I've seen it, but I was wrong when I thought it before. I was so sure, but I was wrong. What about you? What did you see? Fear? Glory? Or a beast? Why did you do it?... Why did you attack my mom?

"WILL YOU FUCK OFF!"

He slipped again, but it wasn't enough this time. She felt something burn, a streak along the edge of her round black head. It hurt, leaving behind a painful throb and a shallow cut in it's wake. The wound was not severe, little more than a cat's scratch, but the pain it left behind spoke of something much more than lightning, or fire, or regular old magic. This one had only glanced her, but she felt as if she had been violently struck.

Even with all the pain in the world trying to bring her down, she remained standing.

>...So, that's why.

2/4

>>27110503

He shook, but he did not speak. His muscles twitched, but they did not move. His eyes darted left and right, but only saw fear where ever he looked.

>I'm not afraid, I don't want glory, I don't want revenge, and I don't see a monster... I'm just mad you hurt my mom.

Her hoof inched out, poking him in his chest. With all the strength of a weak kitten, she pushed. He fell back, and began the longest journey of a scant few short meters that the world had ever seen.

It started when he fell onto a dish cart that had been rolled under him at that exact moment by a pony tripping over a fallen fellow Elite and landing headfirst into it. The glass that shattered on his back had only been the start.

From there, it seemed every single one of the crowd that still stood had been preparing to launch an attack at the Titan, and every one of them turned their heads to spot the noise at the worst possible moment. A barrage of all sorts of weapons and spells hit him from all sides, each one firing off just as he rolled past. One poor mare who had been in the way jumped to the side just in time, but in her haste tossed a bottle of hot sauce that she had held into the air. It was a perfect landing on his wounds. Then came the dinner tables filled with food and drinks, the bumpy ride that agitated the glass on his back, and the painful hits of anyone unlucky enough to be in his way.

His luck almost turned up, when the door to the restaurant flung open from someone racing outside. It was a clear shot, at last, and he almost rolled out into the street to relative ease. He would have, if a nail hadn't been upturned in the worst spot.

The cart snapped up like a catapult, and he flew clear out the door, and into the streets, his landing just as terrible as his flight, leaving him groaning, aching and bleeding in pain on the ground outside, unable to talk or move.

The door slammed shut, and the unluckiest flight in the world was over. It was all over.

>I understand.

The others had turned their attention back to what they had been doing before, attacking and firing whatever they could at the rampaging monster. The pony that flew by had only been a momentary distraction, a curiosity and nothing more. They had not stopped to consider why, they had not given it question, they had only seen it happen and move on. What he had gone through was nothing to look at, for the beast was still inside, and they were still in danger. They had to fight, they had to put her down like a rabid dog, and that was that.

Thirteen accepted she had no way of knowing if it had been that pony who had fired the first shot, if he had actually been the one to cause her mother such pain, if he had started all this. She had not gotten a thing out of him save insults and scorn, so all she had were the words of the mare who had supposedly seen it. She didn't know if it was him, or not.

The more she thought about it, the less she thought it mattered.

If it had been him, the mare telling her machine to spit fire, the stallion casting spells, or the unicorn trying out his new Infusion, it didn't matter. He could have been any one of them, might as well have been. Right now, for all intents and purposes, the whole of the Elite of Canterlot had one thing on their mind.

Kill Chitania. Kill her mother.

She wanted to believe the Princess hadn't intended this at all. This had been a mistake, a misunderstanding. That Sunset had been wrong.

With every attack... denial became harder and harder.

>...She just wanted to spend time with me...

Hoi.

I wrote the creation, implemention and eventual corruption of the 'Gem of Dreams'. If you want to read the story and see all the components it's made of, it's right here:
http://desustorage.org/mlp/thread/22223659/#22266182

Main components are Chrysoberyl and Sunstone, which are mentioned ina small incident ALL the way back in Thread 001. Read it here:
http://desustorage.org/mlp/thread/15714689/#15772544

That's right, horsefuckers, Sunset's Stone was crystal-plot relevant AAAAALL along...

>>27110486
Bit of tonal whiplash from her last story to here, but I'm still happy she's just trying to better herself.

>>27110512
>She turned her slapstick into an attack

DAMN

>>27110517
d-did 13 just use her curse to cause someone other than her harm?
HOLD ME I'M SCARED BY THE IMPLICATIONS

>>27110486
Well, glad she calmed down. Celly was all "TERMINATOR MODE ACTIVATED" last thread.

Also, did she stop to fix Dollestia on the way back? I only ask because I re-read it, and sure enough, when she left Dollestia was just a head.

>>27110512
>Her hoof inched out, poking him in his chest

ONE TOOOOOOUUUUCCCCCHHHHHH

>>27110486
Yes. All of my Yes. Yes, more please, kind sir.

>>27110517
>>27110599
This scares me for wholly different reasons. I think 13 just stopped believing in the goodwill of the princesses. Which is good news for the Mean Team, but bad news for everyone else

>>27110630
dollestia is still just a floating head afaik

>>27110630
Nice reference!

>Well, glad she calmed down. Celly was all "TERMINATOR MODE ACTIVATED" last thread.

Thank god, thought she was actually going to rush off to confront Sunset about that stone thing, but I guess she didn't put it together yet.

Jetset's finally fixed too.

Okay. Next step is the Royal Guard actually being competent at their jobs ?

>>27110638
>I think 13 just stopped believing in the goodwill of the princesses

I don't think it's that bad yet, but her faith in them is for sure shaken. Which is funny as she is currently the only one who doesn't think they're rolling balls of shit.

>No, I'm doing this because you all have a problem.

"Is the problem me being here? I can fix that. Because I was here already, but I'm not nailed to the floor, so that can change."

'Is the problem lack of sexy pillow fights in lingerie?'

(...)

>You all have... addiction problems. Now I know, you don't want to confront it, but we have to come together and-

"So does this mean you're giving up your Hyperspace Hyperwars figures?"

'Or that you're going to stop wasting an exorbitant amount of money on silly stuff with Celestia and Chrysalis?'

"Or that you're going to sell off your old comics to pay for Two's college?"

'Or that you're going to stop drinking all the milk every morning?'

"Or that you're going to stop it with the 'Shiny time' in the bath?"

'Or at least spend less than two hours in there?'

>>27113031
Hey, she never would've done that if she wasn't drunk. It's not like she understood what was happening.

You can't drug a child and then claim that when bad stuff happens it's their fault.

>Rarity
"Chitania"
'Sunset'
~~~

Rarity, despite how she tended to act on occasion, really did care about her friends feelings, all of them.

So, she could only hope Dash did not misread her intentions, and wouldn't think she was trying to show her up.

>You brutish thing.

The Titan rebuked her every time she tried to get up and mount a proper offense. Every time so much as a spark of light mingled with the white on her horn, a black hoof of terror would lash out and bring her right back to the ground.

>You abhorrent thug.

A ground she would not stay on. It was simply too dirty, after all.

Just as she had every time before, she rose up, she summoned what little magic she could, and then came the blow. Before, she could at least dodge a few, but she had slowed recently, the entire thing proving to be too much for her.

"GRRRRAAGHHH!"

That thing just kept roaring at her too.

>Really darling, if you're going to act like a beast, must you speak like one too-

A hoof to the face cut that off.

The floorboards felt so tantilizing that time, much softer and more comfortable than they had any right to be. Briefly, she considered laying down, and getting her breath back briefly.

A thought she quickly squashed, and pushed aside. It wouldn't be proper for a lady to stay on the ground, after all.

'You know the sad part? I should probably be telling you to stay down and stuff, but wow this is fun!'

A lady also shouldn't think such thoughts as the ones currently flooding her mind, but there was simply no helping that one.

'Go on, try again!'

She didn't know if Sunset was surprised or not when she actually did as asked, getting back to shaky hooves and lighting up her horn as before. A bolt of light struck the Changeling right in her cheek, yet barely made her flinch. The hoof that responded to it managed quite a lot more.

She hoped she wouldn't have to pay for that table.

'Holy shit, you actually did it!... Do it again!'

1/2

>>27113513

>And here I thought this despicable thing was the worst thing I had ever seen-

She for sure wasn't paying for the glass she shattered, that stuff was expensive.

'You know, I kind of thought you guys would at least be somewhat useful for fighting... guess you actually suck at everything!'

She kept getting up, kept firing, always right at the eye of the changeling that had been hit at the start of this battle. It never worked.

>Must you prattle on like that? I don't see you doing any be-

Not once.

'Oh please, like she needs my help to kick your useless ass.'

The Titan seemed to agree, and attempted to prove just that when she hit her so hard her alabaster body shattered the one remaining chandelier on the ceiling.

She was getting slower now, not rising up as quickly, her already useless hits doing less and less every time, if that were possible.

All the same, speed be damned, she rose once more. Every time.

'Again!'

Every time the changelings eyes almost wandered, she got back up.

Every time the Titan almost turned to those occasionally pelting her with magic, she fired her white bolts again.

Every time, without fail, that the Titan almost looked away, she threw one more barb.

>You disgusting wad of black tarr, we should have shot you when-

She did it, every single time, and she would keep doing it.

'You ready to give up yet?'

She never voiced the words to that one, couldn't yet. It wasn't time yet, there was still much to do before she said... "No, there's still something to do."

Rarity was not a grand warrior, she was not an unstoppable being, nor was she a magician without compare, but there was one thing she had that those who possessed such qualities did not.

>Oh, I simply cannot give up yet, Sunset dear... your despicable face hasn't been broken yet.

She knew the usefulness of a good show.

And how important it was not to stay down... until the curtain call.

>Is that the best you've got?

>>27113525
She has guts, you can tell because they're all over the ground

>>27113525
Okay, I'll give her points for keeping on when she's literally getting the shit beaten out of her.

>>27113525
>Rarity desperately tries to climb out of "Worst Princess" hole
>Hasn't managed yet

>>27113525
>Step 1, just fuck me up
>Step 2, ????
>Step 3, Not be shit!

Something's missing here...

>>27113930
She's just distracting her and buying time, I bet.

>>27114082
For what? So the rich pricks can fire more shots before getting beat down too?

She doesn't know that we are eventually going to send someone to save her ass. She is just martyring herself.

Also wonderful restraint by Chitty to have not killed anyone yet despite connecting with randoms more than once.

Where's Spike?

I feel like writing Spike.

“Potsticker”
‘Night Guards’
~~~~

The common room of the elusive night guards was one of held breath, filled with tension so thick you could cut it.

The ones present were crowded around a round table, more specifically around a little tail-wagging changeling with a bevy of ingredients laid out before him while the night guard captain herself stood just behind.

She reached overhead, picking up a miniature bottle.

“And this…?”

>Mmmmm… it’s mmmmmirrrrr…

‘C’mon, kid!’

‘You got this!’

‘You’ve trained, you’ve studied, easy peasy!’

>Mmmmmiiii- sesame seeds!

The bottle was returned and the captain merely smirked.

“Correct.”

‘Oh praise Faust!’

‘I CAN’T TAKE THIS TENSION MAN!’

‘Only one more! One! MORE!’

“And noooow…”

She dragged the word out, slowly, with a whimsical dread as she reached for the last ingredient, a bottle of darkish liquid.

“This? Which is this?”

‘Oh, shit… even I failed that one….’

‘Luckily the kid ain’t you, eh?’

‘SOMEONE HAND ME A KNIFE SO I CAN CUT THIS TENSION!’

‘I’ll hand you a knife if you cut yourself instead.’

‘Wow, rude.’

‘Ah, you know I love you.’

‘You’re off the night guard Christmas card, Grant.’

‘Long as your mother gets ‘this’ Christmas card, I think I’ll be fine.’

‘…You’re back on. Touché.’

“Quiet, please, the new shade is trying to concentrate.”

And that was wholly accurate. A vein of intense focus had popped to life under Fifty-Six’s chitin, just on the side of his forehead. How was anyone’s guess.

>>27114847

>Ehhhhmmm… uhhhhh… errrrrrgh…

The entirety of the common room leaned in, eyes widened, breathing halted, tails stood up straight.

>Soy sauce! …Right?

He glanced directly up, up into the face staring directly down at him.

A face that was smirking.

“Correct, new shade.”

‘YAAAAAHOOOOO!’

‘POP THAT CONFETTI MAN!’

‘POPPING!’

“Congratulations, new shade. I’ve got to go prepare for tomorrows… festivities… ha. Haha… AHAHAHAHAHA!”

>Hey, you sound like not-mom with the plannin’ and stuff!

‘Does your not-mom’s plans fail miserably as well and usually leave her fucked up in the process?’

>All the time!

“I bid you all farewell, and goodnight.”

‘…’

‘…Is she gone?’

‘Yup.’

‘Thank the stars, I wasn’t sure how much longer I could fake interest.’

‘My cheeks hurt from smiling so much….’

>Wait, you guys mean you didn’t care that I… that I passed?

‘Huh? Course we do!’

‘Yeah, you’re one of us now, never think we don’t care, new shade.’

‘It’s the test itself we couldn’t give two moons about.’

>Well, it was kinda easy… considerin’ she forgot to take the tags off most of ‘em.

‘Like she always does.’

‘But it’s so much easier to keep her happy.’

‘Mostly because she’s our lovable drama queen of a captain. Anyways, c’mon, new shade, the night is young and so are we.’

>Yeah!

>Oh no! My body is being threatened by this totally racially fair machine! The horror!... ZAP!

The head of the machine blew right off, the guns it had been raising firing uselessly before it fell to the side.

>Self defense!... Oh no! That pony is giving me a glare and charging up their horn!... BLAM!

The pony he had spoken of let out a squawk of pain when the laser blast hit the ground, stumbling before a table was smashed over his head.

>My self has been defended!... OH NO! That one is pouring infusions on it's hoof, and is looking to my dear sister, fellow of my hive!... KAPOW!

He eschewed all pretenses and just broke a bottle over that one's head.

>OH NO! That mech is... not pointing at me, actually. What's the deal with-

{FIRING!}

Lightning shot out, but strangely did not fire in his direction, the direction of Thirteen or even the Titan herself.

"LOOK OUT-ZZBBABABABBZBZ!"

'ACTY!'

But towards the changeling who had walked into the door a second prior, before being pushed out of the way by his white stallion companion, and instead was filled with enough electricity to light up the entire room.

>That... was actually impressive. Just, opened the door and tried to put him on the floor. That was some amazing reaction time, I have to admit. That was some rapid fire racism. We have reached a new technological height, a way to distribute shooting bug ponies at half the speed. Truly, we live in the future...

Without a second thought, he fired a laser and took off that machines head before it could fire again.

>The future sucks.

"I'M OKAY!"

The stallion stumbled a bit, before wobbling over to the nearest downed pony, and moving them as best he could towards the door.

'SERIOUSLY!?'

"I'm not going to let them get shot-"

{THREAT DETECTED!}

'OH COME ON!'

>>27122374

The eldest of the changelings sighed, watching as again the poor stallion was forced to take a hit for his friend, and then once the threat was dealt with got right back to dragging whoever was left to safety.

>This is getting sad.

'Can we at least-ARE YOU SERIOUS!?'

The unicorn that his friend picked up may have been serious, he may have just been acting because he had a concussion. Regardless, he was shooting at the juggling changeling one way or another, even when the earth pony carrying him forced the blast towards himself.

'This is some bullshit!'

Solemnly, his fellow changeling agreed, backhoofing someone who had been trying to sneak up behind him.

>Yes, the bonds of prejudice cut off the airflow to the mind, and make fools of us all... SELF DEFENSE ATTACK!

The pony who had been running away in fear let out a comical scream before being knocked out cold

>You all saw it, she had three knives and a gun!

"..."

'...'

>...Ahem.

With a casual toss, the pony was hurled out the window.

>I mean, I was helping her get to safety.

"..."

'..'

>You sir! Let me help you to safety!

Another pony was caught by the tail, spun around, and tossed right out the door. The tail did not go with him,

"..."

'...'

>You forgot this!... I'm helping. Doing my diplomatic responsibilities to aide in my allies and protect my kin! I should get a raise for this.

The earth pony would have commented, had he been able. But his mouth was full.

{FIRING!}

With electricity.

>Just so you know, you continuing to get hurt dragging them to safety does not count as hazard pay, especially when you drag them out of my range of... helping.

The juggler looked to the smiling changeling, he looked to his friend getting zapped while getting yet another attacking pony to safety, and something very deep and profound struck him.

'...I'm starting to think nobody here is actually racist, everyone's just fucking crazy.'

Wow. There is no part of this I don't love.

Holy shit, does the universe literally hate the fuck out of this guy?

Shit NEVER goes well for him when he tries to help. Every single fucking time he tries to actually protect someone he gets his shit kicked in and nobody even thanks him afterwards. This fucker should just go full supervillain.

>Holy shit, does the universe literally hate the fuck out of this guy?

He hangs out with a changeling. Ergo, he is on Faustmom's permanent shitlist.

PROVE ME WRONG.

Sucks when you make an OC for your story and then the show brings in a character of the same name. I don't even remember if we gave her a last name to differentiate, just that our batpone minor side character (with enough recent irrelevancy that she may as well be full background pone) predates Starlight
