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.

Thread 152! We're officially an orchard!

No times for smiles when you're fixing things. All work & political things means drifting from apple core values... like taking care of those that look up to you and you are responsible fore... like Applebloom... and Sunset... yeah, that smile was nearly DOA and we've been keeping it from flat lining ever since... with a few more ruptured blood vessels here and there.

“If this is about the braids, I swear he agreed to that.”

>Nah, just seems like he’s stumblin’ into mah’ bed more and more.

“…oh?”

>Yeah, he just shuffles in at night, lookin’ like he done crawled up out his grave, then kinda flops over on the bed and does his best not ta’ make any sudden movements. It’s creepy how considerate he is not ta’ bother me, even though Ah’m pretty sure he don’t know where he is. Ah’ used ta’ just kick him out and force him ta’ find someone else ta’ sleep with, but now, ya’ know, Ah’ kinda just can’t. Ah’ don’t know what he does ta’ me, but Ah’ just keep lettin’ him back in mah’ bed.

“Well, wouldn’t he be much happier with me?”

>Ah’ don’t know bout that, he seems ta’ look a lot better when he leaves mah’ room, than when he does yours.

“I disagree!”

>Face it, he totally looks a lot better when he comes outta mah’ room than when he comes outta yours. Just look at his dang face!

“His… face?”

>Look, Ah’ don’t know why he keeps pickin’ mah’ bed, but just let me have him, Ah’ll make sure he gets what he needs.

“…very well.”

>Ya’ sure?

“Of course, its what’s best for him, isn’t it?”

>Yep. Sure is.

“Great then.”

>Good.

“…”

>Ya’ ever think they wonder where he goes?

“If they cared, they wouldn’t keep shoving him onto the floor.”

>Or at least stop tossing him...

"...it's a little-"

“Why must we be so easily distracted!?”

“Wow, that surface is really shiny-“

“Not a good fucking time, 471!”

“Look, let’s just all calm down, she’s not here, she doesn’t know we fucked up, and she can’t punch us until she does!”

“I’ve got it! I’ll just fill one up, and then say all these assholes fucked up and forgot! Nobody will ever believe those liars!”

“We can hear you, dumbass!”

“But can anyone believe you!? I THINK NOT! For we changelings are natural liars!”

“Where is your proof?... Wait.”

“Hey, 87, that sounds like a good idea? I guess we’ll have to think of excuses, like we got caught up in FACEPUNCH!”

>Did you order the forks?

"That was yer' job."

>No, my job was to order the cake.

"First off, lying ta the element of honesty is pretty dumb. Second, lying about something like that is somehow even dumber, cause it implies Ah' would let you within one hundred steps of the order form, and we both know that restraining order is valid, the judge ruled it and everything."

>I still say you bribed him.

"Sure did. Promised Ah'd keep you from the cake, and low and behold. Element o' honesty."

'Yeah, about that. What does that mean? Does that mean you are literally the most honest pony ever? That you can somehow channel honesty? Can you make others be honest? What did it mean?'

"It means stop thinking about it so hard."

'What a copout! This is one of the most defining moments of your whole life, and we are just suppose to not question it, because what, we are thinking too hard? What role model encourages others not to think hard about the universe?'

"Best Bubblehorse title is dependent on you accepting our praise."

>If you're so cruel to deny us having fun with you, then you're not best anything anymore. You're mean horse.

"Crushing' out souls."

'......best Bubblehorse?'

>The best!

"And ya get hugs! Hugs for best Bubblehorse that don't ask more questions!"

>Hugs!

'Just take the win, Shiny... You wouldn't have liked the answer anyway, probably.'

The answer being she got twilight to drop of a cliff side because she knew Dash and Shy were right there to catch her. No, I don't think you would shiny.

And on top of that , she wasn't eve totally honest, she didn't tell Twi anyone was down there to catch her, just that she should trust her.

He really would not.

“I’m sticking to it.”

“Working with treasonous criminals and all.”

>She’s not treasonous! She’s trying to help, obviously!

“Well, the princess disagrees.”

>You don’t know that! She might be after Diamond Tiara!

“The one Daw is working with?”

>Ye-… no!

“She’s clearly-“

“Alright, I’ll be fair. Technically, I have nothing to link you to this crime. Until you actually go at the princess, it’s just her being her.”

“Yep.”

"Now Applejack, reconsider. If you were walking up to something to eat it, anything, and then it literally vomited up it's own insides, would you really think "Oh yes, this is completely fine to eat!"?"

LAST THREAD RECAP, ROYAL SISTER RUMBLE EDITION!
>Celestia wonders what happened, but when Shining finds her she isn't very bothered. She deduced it wasn't an invasion due to nobody being hurt, so after playing around the two decide to head out at a leisurely pace.
>The guards know better than to fight the robot.
>Twinklejinx and the book manage to avoid detection by 32, for a little bit. But when Actarius holds a changeling learning class, where four other changelings sit in a circle and he teaches them to read, with 32 helping after some reluctant acceptance by the lings, TJ is forced to hide in 32's closet.
>There, he comes across a 'disguise', which consists of a big wide brimmed purple hat, rainboots, a bunch of scarves, and ski goggles, all the stuff that was left over from when the Embassy was a clothing shop that 32 couldn't get rid of.
>One of the lings, 47, finds him, but when said ling asks why 32 has a skeleton in his closet, he's blown off.
>Afterwords, TJ is forced out and into the class in a case of mistaken identity. After the real 47 comes back, he's forced to jump out the window in an attempt to flee. He gets away, leaving an oddly nonchalant Actarius and JJ, and a very chalant and freaked out 32 behind.
>Outside, he discovers how things have changed, and promptly freaks out before thinking of a way to use it for world domination. In one such idea, he realized he needed a different name than Twinklejinx, and he gets offered suggestions from none other than Rekulk, the morlock! After which he promptly flees... again.
>FS and Dash fail to make it home due to something standing in their way. That something? Fluttershy's brother Zephyr.
>It's not a happy reunion.
>77 encourages Harry to vote.

>Mayor Mare calls 29 into his office, reminds him of that time she made a deal with Chrysalis to save him from getting his head blown off, and then reveals... something.
>OOCO Two is very good at diplomatic meals.
>OOCO DT has a woodchuck, and after much debating and betting with a host of others, finds that a woodchuck can chuck 499 wood, Why? Because it's Pinkie's woodchuck. This all makes sense.
>Silver Spoon is enjoying Spoiled Rich and PD losing their minds.
>AJ finds she likes her new armor, which augments all her abilities. DT dislikes it, since it was supposed to be for her.
>It makes her stronger, faster and all around more powerful, with two little catches. One, it's near impossible to control, resulting in her hitting the wall over and over, and Two, It was designed for DT, including when she would grow up, which means it's made to go as big as she can possibly go. Which is why it's a little saddening to DT when AJ says it's really tight in the rear.
>Even without the armor, which AJ refuses to return, DT still charges the mech with TBDRLIATU.
>AJ is having none of that, catching her in mid air and carrying her off away from the battle. There, after trying to reach her by telling her of how dangerous it all is, and getting nothing but threatened for her trouble, AJ has had enough, and makes a choice.
>The choice to rip off it's jumpjets, and then hurl TBDRLIATU over the distance, respectively.
>This utterly breaks DT, who is now convinced she's letting her mother down, and despite how much it hurt to do, AJ doesn't apologize for it as she walks away.

>Lightning Dust finally meets the battle, and is confused nothing is happening. Likewise, Pommel who is also there does not seem to have any idea, and is unwilling to attack the docile mech. So they sit around and chat.
>Filthy Rich reveals his real reason for the mayoral race, bringing his family back together!
>Daw finds DT in a despondent state after watching the rocket launcher get tossed, and when she hears DT apologize to her mother she decides she's had enough of that, and goes down and tells DT to get on her back. After a pep talk, she agrees.
>On the flight, Daw tells DT it's okay if she wants to cry, no matter how much she denies it and insists only children cry. Daw points out that her own father figure, one of the strongest shes' known, cried too, for the same reason she did when he died. Afterwards, DT admits she's afraid of letting her mother down, who was the only one who actually let her do all this stuff without referring to her as a kid.
>Daw understands, and when TBDRLIATU flies back into her hooves, after firing off in a way even Daw can't figure out, they turn around and get right back towards the battle.
>Gambling and Quicksilver, who TBDRLIATU had been watching this whole time after he landed in front of them, get blasted.
>Scootaloo and a changeling have a chat.
>10 is so excited she gets to cover the mayoral race, because nothing is happening in Canterlot... right?
>Pinkie, while running around and slapping ponies to find where Cadence is, makes a terrible mistake, and slaps Jokey Chan.

>Spitfire looks at the form for the Wonderbolt Captain contest for a while, declaring she doesn't need it, but when she leaves it's untouched.
>Luna's teaching technique needs work, but don't tell her that.
>A Peacetrotter wishes for a perp to reconsider the cookies. He does not.
>When a Cantie says aloud he 'wants' a princess like AJ, Spike does not take kindly to it.

>>28132514
>He takes even less kindly to it that said cantie doesn't recognize him, but knows Sweetie Belle right away.
>Though Spike wants to help AJ, when SB runs off talking about living dolls and he hears Babs scream, he decides it's worth looking into.
>AJ tackles Applebloom, and initially freaks out that she hurt her, not so much when the battle resumes.
>Shiny and Celly are bantering when they almost make it to the fight, with Celly declaring she will drop him in a heartbeat if he keeps sassing her.
>That becomes way less funny when he falls through Canterlot, through a hole in the floor AJ made, and she freaks out before catching him just in time.
>After that, she.. needs a minute.
>Cadence worries about it too.
>Rarity, out of options, says that if Moondancer lets her do a makeover, she'll leave. Reluctantly, she agrees.
>42 is noticing something odd in the Empire...
>Fuzzy and the Buzz keep you updated.
>The Changelings begin to wonder if they can just leave.
>Velvet accidentally makes Two cry.
>The battle between AJ and AB heats up, with AB pulling out all the stops and being completely invulnerable, and AJ trying to figure out how to use her armor. Just when AB starts to get the advantage, she's suddenly blasted by a giant missile, and nearly knocked down. Seeing DT riding on Daw and getting back into the fray, AJ is ticked.
>Worried, Daw admits that she hopes DT has a plan, and said filly does. That is, just stay ahead of her, since she needs to charge every jump. Then she'll blow her up. It's not a complicated plan.
>But more importantly, this is bad. Why? Because it has made AB a very, very, very unhappy filly. Seeing AJ charge off again, she feels like she's being ignored, again. That's not going to stand.
>Enrages, she hits the biggest, most dangerous looking button she can find, and lets it all out.

'How could ya' forget the dang sleeping bags!?'

>Hey, I'm an army stallion, we didn't get sleeping bags. I'll have you know we camped out under the stars, completely exposed to the elements, uncovered and getting bitten by all sorts of bugs while dirt and leaves stuck us in the back, and that's if we were lucky! The unlucky guys got the rocks.

"Uh huh, and you had to do it uphill, both coming and going."

>Only on roulette mountain, which in hindsight was all a matter of timing and we chose poorly.

'Yer' tellin' me you never even got a dang tent?

>Nope! We got rained on, snowed on, and I don't even want to tell you about the wind! Even the morning dew can ruin you by lowering your body temperature.

'Huh... that's-'

>Moronic, I know. in hindsight, it was a completely stupid thing to do which majorly affected our armies ability to function, reducing our effectiveness causing a lot of us to get sick and put a burden on our medical staff before a single fight, and completely ruined our ability to think straight or even keep from getting diseases from insects, and we probably should have just slept on a cot or something.

"...I may have forgotten to fill out a paper or two."

'DANG IT CELESTIA! What are we going to do now!?'

~~~

The speed at which everything broke down was nothing short of stunning.

The frantic collision of every possible angle coming together like a dozen of the worlds speediest freight trains coming together in a symphony that sang of utter destruction and chaos that was every bit as stunning to behold as it was chilling to witness. In the span of a few short seconds, the whole world shifted on a dime, and no determination, no force of will, could ever hope to bring it back

It all started, as most life altering changes do, with a bang.

A single burst of sound originating from the machine down below that had dolled them out so freely, a pop that took the attention of scheming filly, raging princess, and focused pegasi away from their squabbles and thought just long enough to remind the three there were consequences for looking away, even for a moment. That one instance, short as it was, was too long to take back, or undo.

One instance, where the thing that should have been to heavy to move properly, the thing that should have been too weighty to do anything more than fall with a thunderclap should it hop an inch, began to float up.

>...Twi might'a overdid it.

'WHAT THE FUCK!?'

The gaping pegasus beneath her shared the sentiment, even if her hissing breath couldn't quite find the words to put to it in order to vocalize the heart rending terror she felt at that moment. Even for one who had seen a literal island become alive and destroy with reckless gusto, watching that thing rise up seemed well beyond the realm of sanity, and straight into the absurd.

"CAN'T IGNORE ME NOW, CAN YA'!?"

The whole thing heaved forwards, doing little more than tilting and letting gravity roll her in the direction rather than aiming it with anything even approaching precision. It was a lumbering brick, a floating wrecking ball and nothing more. All of the fanciest technology that Equestria's finest could bring, reduced to one thing.

Hitting, and hard.

1/9
>>
>>28134573

The lumbering behemoth of metal charged with all it's massive body could manage, and those in it's way were reduced to anything else in the path of a wrecking ball.

Getting out of the way, or getting wrecked.

'MOVE!"

The ex-pirate needed no more motivation, she hadn't even needed that. All she knew was that flying, and flying very fast, was exactly what she needed to do at that moment. So she flew, as fast as her wings could carry her, away from the shadow looming over her and to the place she could only jokingly call 'safe'.

>STOP THIS RIGHT NOW!

Right on their tails and fleeing just as fast as them, no matter how in change and in control she attempted to seem, was the princess who struggled to make her armor listen to her just long enough to get her free from the looming end of the roaring machine. It obeyed, by accident or design, and rocketed her clear from the metal mass just before it collided with the wall she had been leaning on, reducing it to nothing but rubble that didn't so much as scratch the shining paintjob on the front.

Her escape came at a cost.

>Ow.

One she was willing to pay, no matter how much she wished she had gone anywhere except on the corners of one of the doorways, ensuring her entire stop only came after carving clear a long rent in long, long wall.

'This thing can fly!? This is more bullshit than when Chitania did it! How!?'

"It can do way more than that..."

A malicious, evil hoof slammed down on the weapons systems, and the whole of the tank's upper half snapped around at an unnatural angle. What had before been a trickle, a calculated barrage of missiles cut loose. The Berserk mode had only one thing on its artificial mind.

Missiles, all the missiles.

>...She is so grounded.

2/9
>>
>>28134578

So entrenched in the wall and unable to move as she was, the low mumble of the princess was as drowned out as she herself became when a great many of them headed towards her, a wall of fire she had not a single hope of dodging, and only a single hope that the ineffectiveness and non-lethal nature would hold true for these as well as it had before.

She need not find out.

'SCATTERBOMBS!'

For the only filly in the world that loved explosions more was ready and waiting, and she only needed one missile to match them all.

One missile that became many, admittedly, but one missile all the same.

"NO YOU DID NOT!"

The yellow filly's fury matched the swirling lights all around her, the red in her eyes brighter than any of those bulbs could bring. Her hooves slammed onto every button she could reach, cracking the seemingly unbreakable things with the force that only an anger like hers could bring.

"YA'LL AIN'T GONNA STOP ME THIS TIME YA' STUPID BULLY!"

Revenge could do that to a filly.

(HOLY SHIT!)

The pegasi's words seemed inadequate as three different, uniquely colored lasers carved through the world, their burning rays leaving searing scorch marks behind every which way.

'Stay steady! I need a clear shot!'

She banked suddenly, sending a retaliatory strike wide. A necessary evil, considering she had been mere inches from getting tagged by the bright white ray.

(Oh sure, getting right on that missy, would you like a fuckin' spot of tea while I'm at it!?)

'Just focus!'

(On what!?)

'HER!'

The filly suddenly twisted, her hoof pulling the trigger before her vision had even ceased to be an incomprehensible blur. Despite her speed, her shot rang true.

Right into the chest of the mare who had been diving right at them.

(Was she just jumping at US!? The fuck is wrong with her!?)

'Do you have a week for me to tell you-LEFT!'

She dodged without question, just in time to dance between two rocket, and the white hot energy that mingled with them.

3/9
>>
>>28134587

>Damn it, will ya'll run already!? Daw, get her outta here!

Though it was surprising to the pirate to hear the princess's voice cry out, when by all rights she should have been down for the count, the filly on her back held no such illusion. She knew what that armor was capable of, and knew full well even a shot like that couldn't manage it.

(No can do, princess! We got us a robot to blow up!)

>That's an order, ya' hear me! Ah'm orderin' you to leave!

The pegasi was almost taunting as she dodged and weaved, getting closer and closer to the hovering monster of metal to grant her passenger a clearer shot.

(You're thinkin' of my better half. I don't work for you, mate!)

She nearly bit off her tongue in her anger, already charging up another leap in towards the pair.

>Ah'm still a dang- LOOK OUT!

Her legs moved faster than her mind when she saw a hidden latch pop open just as the filly reached prime barrage range, for both herself and very much for the thing she fought. So fast was her impromptu flight, she barely even registered the launch of something very big, and very long before it fired right for the pink filly's face.

It found nothing but metal covered orange back, and whatever it had been meant to do was reduced to nothing but a shove as it knocked into her like a bowling ball. Straight back, and into the shocked pony it had hungered for a mere second ago.

Faster than Daw could blink, she realized they had been fired upon, something had flashed before her eyes, and now her back felt a whole lot lighter. She would have wondered about that more, had every single weapon not trained itself right on her, and she now found herself the focus of the filly's rage.

(...this escalated quickly.)

The filly, currently in a freefall after being princess-bludgeoned off her steed's back, disagreed. Everything was deescalating far too quickly for her tastes, mostly herself, and in the direction of the ground.

>DIAMOND TIARA!

4/9
>>
>>28134594

The moment she had her bearings, far too late in her mind, she dove straight down with all the speed she could muster, lips flapping back in the wind as she strove to close the gap between herself and the falling filly before the final splat could ring out.

>I'LL GET YOU! HOLD ON AH'VE GOT YOU, JUST-

The splat never came. Instead, a loud twang and a clack took it's place.

The princess was given only a second's glance at the silver cable that sprang out from the rocket launcher before the pink blur whizzed past her, her momentum reducing and converting into a long swing, before the fate she had feared for the filly became all too real for her.

With a solid and pathetic whump, she hit the ground, hooves still outward in fear to catch the one quickly swinging around before coming to a much softer skid of a stop.

'Hrmph. As if I need you to-CUT IT OUT!'

Her reactions were just fast enough, even if it was cut so close she could feel her own missile's air rolling on her face as it shoved the princess mid dive, a mere fraction of an inch from her being close enough to once more pluck the rocket launcher from her hooves.

The filly's face became a twisted, red nightmare, with a burning gaze that never left the mare as she rolled away before coming to a stop on her side.

'Stop that, now! When are you going to get it through your thick head!? How many times to I have to blast it into you! You're not getting rid of me, and you're never hurting TBDRLIATU again!'

The princess didn't move, remaining to lie still on the ground with her back to the screeching, high pitched bundle of anger.

'WELL!? WHAT'S IT GOING TO TAKE!?'

Not a response came. Neither it or a single movement.

'ANSWER ME, APPLEJACK!"

Nothing, but stillness and quiet amidst the roar of battle and destruction.

'...A-Applejack?'

>Why won't you let me fix mah' mistake?

5/9
>>
>>28134604

The filly would never admit she felt her heart jump, turning back on after feeling dormant for far too long. She would never admit it, to herself or others, that she felt a cool rush along her chest when she heard that voice.

>Why don't you see Ah' just want to get you away before you get hurt?

Shaking, wobbling hooves helped raise the princess, and not a one of them was caused by any sort of injuries.

'...you haven't learned anything.'

If the heat on the filly's face go by, those inures may come, in time.

>What am Ah' gonna have to do?

The sudden, desperate rasp was all that kept her trigger from pulling.

>Just... just tell me what Ah' have ta' say to make you go home. Tell me what you wanna hear so that you'll leave. Ah'll say it, Ah'll...

She shuddered, putting on the hat that had fallen from her head, and pulling it down over her eyes, so that the filly couldn't see.

>Want me to say that Ah'm just jealous yer' so great, and Ah' don't want you taking all the glory? Fine. Ah'll say it, to you, to them, to everyone. Ah'll do a damn press release and call the whole of Equestria, swear on it. Ah'll tell them all Ah'm too scared you're gonna surpass me, that you'll make me look bad. Ah'll tell them you did all the hard work. You win, you'll look great, everyone will know this was all you, and yer' the best. You win, and they'll all know it, just please... go home. Go home before somethin' happens, and Ah' can't fix this ever again.

She held there, eyes pointed squarely to the ground, and she waited, and she prayed.

'...No.'

She felt it right in her chest when it failed.

>Why won't you just let me protect you-

'NO!'

6/9
>>
>>28134616

The soft voice was easily drowned out, any retort long gone under the realization it would bear no fruit.

'No! Just... stop! Just stop! You don't get to just... try to turn it off, okay! You don't get to tell me to go home after all I've been through, all I went through! You don't get to go, 'well, that's your lot, you don't get to be in it anymore!' You don't get to do that!'

>Why not!?

Finally, she looked up, glistening eyes meeting the glare given, and returning it in kind.

>Why won't you let me fix it!? Ah' messed up, Ah' know Ah' did now! You never should've gone this far! You never should've become... this! You should've just stayed the little firecracker who annoyed mah' little sister all the time, not... this! Ah' made this when Ah' let you in, this is mah' fault! Ah' admit it! It's all true! Blame me, yer' right! Hate me, ya' got the right to do it! Do whatever you have to do, just let me fix it!

'You had your chance!'

Of ever single projectile and explosive shot at her today, that was the one that managed to hit true.

'You had your chance... and you tried to make me quit again.'

She growled, her grip on TBDRLITU suddenly slipping ever so slightly as she stared down the one so much bigger, so much more powerful than her. One she held no fear for.

Only hate.

'You had your chance to let me back in after Cordyceps, or when we save that changeling, but no. You said no, again, even after I showed you I can handle myself! Even after I showed you how good I was! You could have let me rejoin then!'

>Ah' was tryin' to keep you safe-

'Why didn't you just believe in me again!?'

Something about the words, the desperation and need that was so much stronger than the ego and the pride, the way she looked at her, all of it made her stop, and feel so empty inside her metal shell.

>>28134629

'You... you believed in me, back when this all started, you knew I could do it, didn't you? You said you did! You knew I could handle it, and I did! I managed, no matter what happened, and then you just... abandoned me.'

She had nothing to say, what could she in the face of the eyes of the filly, who would not let a single drop fall no matter how much it seemed she wished to.

'You knew I could do it, then you just... ignored me.'

She turned her back on the princess, never once looking to the metallic, outstretched hoof that reached for her.

'I thought you understood what I could do, what nobody else did... but I was wrong.'

Her nose jutted to the air, hauty and prim, all of the shakes long gone.

'And I don't need you anymore. I've found friends, a whole bunch of them, and all of them know what I can do. Mommy's even going to set me up to prove it against even bigger foes, you'll see! They all want me to be better. Not like you, who wants me to just... go home. I thought you understood, I thought you believed in me, I was wrong.

Her weapon pointed straight, aimed right at the mech currently harassing her previous ride.

'So... so I'm going to go out there, and I'm going to prove all of them right, and you wrong. I'll prove it, and leave you here in the dirt... where you belong.'

Her hoof hovered on the grappling trigger, and she tensed as she prepared to fly.

>...Ah'm so sorry.

It stilled, the ice running through her veins enough to freeze her in place.

>Ah'm so, so sorry... Ah' was wrong. Just tell me... what do Ah' have to do to make it up to you? What can Ah' do to make it right? Ah' don't want... Ah' don't want to lose someone else Ah' care about, because Ah' was a thickheaded idiot. Ah've already lost someone like that, and Ah' don't know if Ah'll get them back. I don't want to let it happen again. How can Ah' fix this? Just tell me, what can Ah' do? Ah'll do it... just tell me.

'...Stay out of my way.'

8/9
>>
>>28134641

The grappling hook launched, went taut, and pulled her away, all before another word could be spoke.

All before Applejack could see her face.

>...Ah'm sorry.

But no matter how fast she was pulled away, it wasn't fast enough for Applejack to miss what she had left behind.

>But Ah' can't do that.

She had a let someone down today. She had let someone down yesterday. She had let so many down so many times, she couldn't keep track of it all. Her stubbornness, her pride, and her need to be right had caused it, she knew. She had failed before.

>Because... Ah' gotta make it right.

She would not fail this time, for either of the them.

>Ah' can fix this.

>>28134649
>>Ah' can fix this.

>>28134696
She doesn't have to make it worse, she is close though and as much as it is going to anger a few people, DT and AB going over AJ is probably the better move here. She hasn't even lost yet and she is learning, she just can't accept it yet.

That shit almost wrecked Chitania at her peak, AJ would have a hole blown in her.
>>
>>28135386
>You were hoping DT would blow her up?

Well...Yeah. I mean AJ would have at most only been knocked out because MC plot armor is the strongest there is. And Alicorn Immortality is broken on top of that. So it would have been cathartic but about as ineffectual as Celestia drowning herself.
>>
>>28135432
I agree with your first sentiment that this is better, her just trying to talk to DT and offering an olive branch works better.

Admittedly, I like this better because this leaves room for some reconciliation, and it's not just her ineffectually charging before losing, like with Sunset was, but there you go.

“And we feel hungry.”

>You’re still not calling her back?

The filly’s face scrunched, her obvious displeasure rolling off the mare that was the focus of her ire without so much as ruffling her fur, her prim nose still pointed straight up as it so often was.

“Of course not, I can’t have my little darling turn tail and run, especially after that brutish farmer dragged her so far away! It would look like the princess was right, and I can’t have that.”

>She doesn’t have anything in her arsenal that can stop that thing now, she can barely even keep up without the armor!

“And yet, she’s staying on par with an alicorn, a princess who wields the Elements of Harmony no less, in the fight! Why, if anything, calling her back would be lunacy just for the story potential it loses. Think about this, my little Diamond, a shining example to all of Equestria far and wide, proving that no alicorn princess, even one with all that power, can stop them or hold them down. She’s an inspiration! Fillies and colts are going to be dressing up as her for Nightmare Night, putting her posters on the wall. My little darling is going to be a star…”

She leaned back, a wistful smile on her face. For a moment, Silver Spoon felt doubt, heard her words and considered them.

“And everyone is going to know I made her that star…”

That didn’t last long.

>If something happens to her….

“Oh pish posh, you’re being silly.”

She didn’t get a chance to say it, but she was going to think it, as she knew her words went unheard, and unheeded, as the filly’s mother dreamed.

“The greatest star in Equestria… just as soon as she cleans up this mess.”

Even if she wasn’t listening, and wouldn’t hear, the filly would say it.

“It smelled like a dead bird wrapped in an old gym sock. Specifically, a dead bird. Not some other kind of dead thing wrapped in some other kind of sweaty article of clothing, a bird and a sock respectively. I don’t even know how you managed that.”

>Applejack, you’ve got to think! My favorite red shirt is in there!

That's baloney, they only don't interact much during arcs because they are often on other side of the world, or in their own story line. They just each have their own set of characters they work with, and they are the respective ringleaders of each set. Shining is obviously the protagonist of the ones from the empire, while AJ is obviously the ones from the Main Place. Well, she is now at least, it used to be Spike. Point is, they could interact, they just usually end up opposite each other because their arcs are opposite of each other.

By the laws of Narrative Causality, that date will probably be interrupted by Chitania absorbing the powers of Red, Lavan, and the other two gods, then getting into a tag team fight with Hivemind-connected Sunset against Faust and Craig while Pennydrop launches an invasion of Equestria and all the demons in Tartarus decide to rebel against Cheerilee and bathe the world in fire.

Would it go that bad?

The Spike/AJ date was completely worry and conflict free.

Whenever the threesome go on a date, something major happens in the Empire regarding their leaders.

You'd think they'd just cancel each other out and have a very annoying but ultimately uneventful date.

Far away from the battle taking place in the midst of Equestria's finest city of white, in one of the southernmost corners of the country, the land itself was changing.

What was once a tiny hamlet with less than a hundred souls accounted for was slowly being overshadowed by tall spires of gleaming steel and glass rising into the sky like the outstretched digits of a beast trying to reach Heaven itself.

The tiny mine upon which the industrious ponies living in the shadow of the high rim of the massive, round valley has been substituted by an ever-growing industry; machines, ponies and diamond dogs alike churning out massive quantities of gleaming gems from the every soil beneath.

It would've been unthinkable just a year ago. To the common pony, it was mind-boggling, it was far-fetched, it was an industrial revolution.

It was the EVO corporation.

In the midst of the valley known as The Hoof, twelve of the highest ranking employees of the up-and-coming corporation for everything the people of the modern era that was creeping in on the whole world had assembled in in a large office with an oval table in its middle. Aside from the usual comforts such as a fully automatic coffee machine and air-conditioning, the office offered a fantastic view of the development outside through the ground-to-ceiling glass panes.

„Good day, and welcome to all of you on our...“

Scarlet Cherry, the blonde-maned mare at the head of the table slightly turned her head to gaze at the clock hung up at the wall. Digital and capable of adjusting itself to a nanosecond through its connections to the recently built radio-towers all across the country, it showed her it was, indeed, time for them to begin.

Still, she allowed the various ponies around her to sigh, groan and adjust themselves on their chairs before continuing.

„...third meeting this week since we established our HQ in Hoofington. Please have a seat.“


1/6
>>
>>28154144

Another series of sighs and grunts as stallions and mares who had never been comfortable in a suit tried to get comfortable. In vain, for the most part.

„Let us cut straight to the meat of the matter.“

„Hear, hear.“

Turning her head to her immediate left, she looked upon a stallion who, not too long ago, had been her direct rival in a far shadier kind of business.

„How are the redevelopment efforts in Baltimare going?“

Now, Comet Crush, smiled patiently at her, his manecut perfect, his coat groomed, his suit holding to his muscular frame as if he'd been taught to wear one since his childhood.

„Everything's happening on a timely schedule. Given how much horsepower we have available to us at this time, I'd say we should be finished with renovations by the end of summer.“

„That's good news. And have you considered what we discussed last week?“

„Ordering a batch of Fawtaine's best infusions? Yes. But it's simply not profitable at this point. With how many reformed hoolig-“

The mare's lip twitched, and she cut him off before he could continue.

„I told you not to call them that.“

And not too long ago, he would've leapt across the table and taken her tongue for slighting him like that.

„I apologize.”

But those days were just like their pasts selves: long gone, so he began anew.

“To reiterate: With how many previously unemployed, hopeless and slash or criminal elements we can count on thanks to our funding their new neighborhood and education, it's pointless to needlessly amp them up on glorified drugs.“

The mare to the right of the stallion spoke, frowning slightly. Once, she'd been known as Killer Queen, a mare who would callously use and abuse her lovers and rivals alike without a second thought.

„Especially if you consider how many of them currently are in our on-site detox treatment and therapy.“

2/6
>>
>>28154153

Everyone knows as Queen Bee now, head of the personnel management and fussy about the well-being of everyone else to the point of having earned herself the name Mama Bee, much to her embarrassment.

„Speaking of Fawntaine; I'd like to hold a brief count of hooves about their recent offer of a merger. All against, please raise your hooves.“

Not a single word was uttered, all present keenly aware of the weight of their choice, given whom they were dealing with.

„I count 4 in favor, eight against. So that concludes that, thank you.“

While the blonde mare at the head of the table scribbled down the result, with small margin notes on the side on how she intended to deal with the ensuring paperwork, the gimlet-eyed stallion three seats to her right spoke up.

„Really? That's it? No further comments, no discussion on how we should deal with our greatest competitor.“

She looked up, quizzical but feeling none of the annoyance she felt she should at being called out like that during daily proceedings, allowing Lightning Thunder to continue.

„I doubt it is wise to rebuke the great white shark in the small kiddie pool that is the Equestrian industrial network. Then again, as our kindly benefactors let us clearly know, we have no interest in butting in on the kind of business THEY are running.““

Recomposed, the Scarlet spoke up again.

„You sound like you have given this more thought than the rest of us. What do you propose?“

„To put it simply, a feint. By feigning internal quarrels that are usually the norm within companies growing beyond their capacities too quickly, I could split a 200 pony division from our Research and Development team to make it look like I am trying to strike out on my own after being fed up with EVO's working conditions.“

Another mare at their table, Amethyst Spark, spoke up.

„Oooh, I see. Working with the enemy. Not bad, not bad.“


3/6
>>
>>28154159

„Rest assured, I enjoy my new lease on life quite a lot. I am merely doing this for the sake of the company.“

They all smiled in uncanny unision.

"We know."

„Hrmm... I see. Well, I will fabricate some paperwork and gossip in advance to make it seem more credible I also suggest we have a dispute or two out in the open where we can be heard and seen.“

„Certainly. Over our usual coffee around twelve?“

„Sounds lovely.“

Without any form dispute or fight, four of them had managed to make a complex agreement that'd require precise timing and unspoken cooperation within minutes. Yet, as astounding this feat was after years of rivalry and infighting, more points on their agenda needed addressing, so Scarlet continued.

„Ahem! Onto the next point of our agenda. How are our projects in Hoofington proceeding?“

„The enucleation of the rich gem fields is going smoothly since we included the diamond dog population into our efforts, though they are letting us know -quite vocally at that- that they will not tolerate further infringement onto their territories.“

„Really? Are they AWARE that we are building an entire industrial complex in the middle of The Hoof's valley?“

Several murmurs of agreement came from around the table in response to that.

„I believe they are in fierce denial about that, no mater how many times we tell them. We will just have to see that we live in peaceful coexistence with our unexpected neighbors.“

„I suppose so... and if all else fails, ask our mutual friends to, ah... pay them a visit, yes?“

Silence, this one far more awkward than the last as they all studied one-another calculatingly. That was, until a pair of hooves were slammed onto the table with enough force to make everyone present wince.

„Well, since none of you tossers wants to address the buffalo in the room, I'll do the honors.“


4/6
>>
>>28154167

„Well, since none of you tossers wants to address the buffalo in the room, I'll do the honors.“
Stripes, one of the most volatile elements known within the very same criminal underground they all used to work in stood on his hindlegs, bloodshot eyes bugging out of his skull, spittle flying from his lips as he shouted.

„ARE YOU FUCKING OUT OF YOUR FAUSTDAMNED MINDS?!“

Despite the display of open hostility and insult, none of them moved as the bull of a half-zebra started pointing at them, shaking with restrained rage.

“Are we seriously going to sit here and run an entire new empire built on the shambles of who we were and all we previously fought for, knowing full FUCKING well that we are doing so because they are FREAKING CONTROLLING OUR MINDS?!”

If Stripes was expecting denials, aggression or even one of his former rivals or allies to bat an eye, he was sorely disappointed. The eleven ponies around him just stared at him, silently and judging, a metaphorically united front against him.

“Are you quite done?”

And Scarlet as their spokesperson, her eyes sharp. Of all the assembled former bad apples of society, she'd been the one who had taken to going white collar the easiest and fastest, almost as if it'd been her calling, her destiny, if her life hadn't taken a turn for the worse in her youth. She stood before a stallion who towered two heads above her, muscles almost as thick as her neck, the tales of his savage brutality enough to make even hardened stallions shake.

But instead of fear, all Stripes could see in Scarlet's eyes was resolution... and an alien glow of barely visible green. The same green all of his colleagues had in their eyes, if one looked closely enough and knew what they were looking for.

Stripes' voice was smaller now, hitching, peaking and falling as he felt the precious power he had held over his own mind gradually slip.

>>28154175

“How does it make you feel, knowing that your judgment and decisions are premeditated by someone else?! How does it make you feel, having all your own instincts, wants, desires and needs suppressed to work for a 'greater good'?!”

One last time, he inhaled deeply, to shout at her, baring his teeth.

“HOW DO YOU FEEL!?”

And all the blonde mare did was what came naturally.

She smiled.

Scarlet smiled the calm, patient smile of a pony at peace with herself. When all he could shudder and look away from her, she turned her back to the one stallion in the room who would have had the most reason and desire to harm her at this very moment to walk back to her seat.

then when the fallout inevitable comes, you're inadvertently saddling fucking E V E R Y O N E to clean it all up to try to restore some status quo

the bigger you're making this, the fucking harder it's gonna be for the rest of us, I'm not the least bit intereseted in magic mind control corporate politics and espionage in my small horse fanfiction, not writing it one bit.

This.

I think we have all together ruled that she's too ineffective to get anything good or bad done when she intends to. It's more funny when it does the opposite.

>or are you honest to goodness cramming a fucking Industrial Base of OC's into the mix
I didn't hear any sobbing cries when an entire species of OCS turned up.

>cos god fucking damnit we've got too damn many already
I agree. They are mostly throwaway names one might use to show they are people too, not just faceless mooks.

>>28154260
>you're writing up this plot where the highest echelons of equestria are written into existence, then they'll be made up to be unstobppable, near Deus Ex like conspiring behemoths faaaar above our main cast
No. They are just former crooks forced to do good. And most of them are starting to enjoy relent in control to someone else. It's called beehive syndrome. If someone REALLY wanted to write it, they could make them all fall. Just... don't do that yet.

>then when the fallout inevitable comes, you're inadvertently saddling fucking E V E R Y O N E to clean it all up to try to restore some status quo
This won't be 'Fawntaine's Secret Splicer Lab v2' or anything of that magnitude if it's that what you mean.

>the bigger you're making this, the fucking harder it's gonna be for the rest of us, I'm not the least bit intereseted in magic mind control corporate politics and espionage in my small horse fanfiction, not writing it one bit.
I am not sorry for not catering to your highly specific, subjective needs, dear reader.

>>28154434
It was established before, those are the crime lords Sunset and Chitty zotzed.

And the Evo thing was established later, with the two climbing one of the towers.

>>28154216
>you're writing up this plot where the highest echelons of equestria are written into existence, then they'll be made up to be unstobppable, near Deus Ex like conspiring behemoths faaaar above our main cast
They're are merely well connected former crooks working together in forced harmony for the first time.

>and god DAMN imma have to write my stuff KNOWING that theres a great big steaming turd of a narrative plotpoint i need to clean up if i want to go anywhere
EVO is an excuse to explain rapidly spreading technology available to everyone, not just supermech and pseudoscience for mega battles. Stuff like Applejack CALLING Celestia from afar or Fuzzy and the Buzz having ACTUAL, explainable radios to have their show on would be nice.

>thanks
You're welcome. Try not to be so negative next time?

>>28154310
>you better have a cleanup strategy for how to deal with it afterwards without shoving a ton of Status Quo changes or "Canon" changes on us out of nowhere.
The only real change I would ask to be acknowledged is that modern technology we can find in our world is more and more common in Equestria. Mostly because EVO is bringing it to the common ponies, instead being a superpower weapons developer like Fawntaine. It's a background arc

>>28154321
>Interesting moral questions...
We established that AJ's counterparts are dark reflections of her choices. So now that she has turned down controlling everyone for a better tomorrow, we have EVO (or Sunset, if you will) to show what it could have brought.

>>28154359
>This is obviously someone recent, tuu-nuu, or even a clever shitposter trying to cause trouble.
Are we starting to be elitis about our fanon now? I'd rather we didn't.

>>28154434
EVO had been mentioned before, when their radio towers were being set up, and it was implied that Sunset drew all those nefarious underground organisations together to facilitate making Chitania's super armor. What you see now is merely what evolved out of her actions
>>
>>28154463
>>28154565
I hope that answers everything the rest of you needs to work with. Yes, there's a plan. No, you can easily play around with the whole thing, don't worry. It's all planned out and malleable, and has a definitive, non-world-crisis-level resolution.

>>28154542
Thank you for paying attention.
>>
>>28154565
>Mostly because EVO is bringing it to the common ponies,
Well there's a major issue, given how this barely shows up in anyone elses stories.

Going from pre-industrial to modern information-era technology is a nasty leap, not even buffering the changeover via "shit loads of magic" isn't gonna make this jarring.

The robots were one thing but now it's getting ridiculous.

>>28154589
>Fawntaine has flying UFOS with long range vidual-audio communucations.

>The Gryphons habe blimps and actual, intervening gods.

>Most superpowers have Metal Gear class mexhs thanks to Fawntaine.

>Common ponies can get super powers through infusions

We are FAR out of pre-industrial,and have been for a while. It'd be reasonable if it was an even change, not just technology spikes for onetime stories.
>>
>>28154611
War/Battle/Conflict makes uneven technology spikes all the time, take a look at history everywhere and you'll see that it's just the way it is. Survival is the goal of War, to Survive you need to be able to get and do things that are Necessary and Necessity is the mother of all invention.

With everything that's happened, it makes sense.
>>
>>28154611
You forgot the Twilight Moon/SPAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAACE Suits.
>>
>>28154679
And the same technology became household appliances and everyday items not too long after. You have to consider that since Twilight came into contact with the portal, she's forcibly brought 'the future' into Equestria, whether anyone wanted it or not.

Now Sunset is waltzing around, uninhibited and with a saddlebag full of schematics and books, and she's apparently letting them be put to use.

>>28154689

So, about that EVO Corp. thing.
Im cautiously interested.
Not really in the potential they bring by giving modern era tech to common pony, no. Its nice, but that doesn't interest me much.

Im also uneasy about this mind alteration thing they went throu, really creepy.

What am I waiting for is the moment the brainwash ends.
We will have a band of cutthroats at the top of bretty big and profitable corporation.
Cutthroats that were basically forced to work together for an extended amount of time.

I want to see them fumble around, distrusting one another but deciding to keep EVO going because its succesful and brings more profit than they had going on with crime.

The idea of bunch competing crime lords deciding to keep together and go legit, while trying their best to not loose their cool and kill each other is very appealing to me.
Especially if someone, say certain rival company, tries to send someone to 'persuade' them to quit the market. That would let EVO heads cut loose and see that one simply does not forget how to deal with someone trying to take your turf.

The beauty of this thread, and what drew me in as a writer, was the idea of conjoined writing. Several authors developing the same plot and stories, expanding the creative possibilities and picking up what others began!

>...Now this is odd.

If there was one thing her keen solider senses were good at, it was picking up the minutia. The small things most easily missed were often the very first things she herself would notice. Small twitches in muscles, a flick of eyes in a certain direction, these things could mean life or death in a battle, and she had been firmly entrenched in the former enough to have honed her skills better than the competition.

What was lacking was her ability to deal with the big, and the blatant. Such as say, a giant wall pasted with paint, a ladder that had somehow found itself wedged into the wall, a bucket that had the imprint of a pony's face in it, and of all things a swingset right in the middle of the floor that looked like a rhinoceros had run it over.

>Stop targetin' her!

If Applebloom could take a single moment and be like her sister, just long enough to reach that famed family honesty, she would admit she didn't care in the least about the pegasus who frankly she did not even know the name of, or why she was here in the first place.

If she was being honest, she was being petty, far more so than she had been in the past, and considering how she had acted before that was saying a lot. She was being mean, she knew, to disregard someone as she was, and consider them unworthy of her time. But if that honesty had remained, she would again insist that the pegasus simply wasn't, no matter how strongly her targeting system seemed to disagree.

(WHY ME!? Why the bloody fuck are you targeting me!? I don't even have the little sod on my back anymore! Why!?)

Little did the pegasus know that Applebloom could not agree more. What had before been a boon, the automatic reaction to every single threat present or future that reacted with speeds far beyond what the filly thought she was even capable of, now was a nuisance. It always reacted to the closest and most noticeable threat, and put it's entire weight behind stopping them. The system so keenly designed was one that she knew was always watching, always on point, and as such she had become lazy and reliant on it in the battle.

It was only now that she saw the flaw. It's sharp programming meant it understood the pair that had been knocked away and were currently not moving were of less danger than the one who was flying directly in front of her, it's internal magical thoughts knew that this threat had to be dealt with first, and lesser threats later.

If only it could understand how little she cared if the pegasi was flying in front of her or not, and how much she cared about firing every single thing she had to the two who had done her so wrong for so long.

It was all that kept her holding back, not daring to flick the switches on half the glorious looking buttons in front of her, all to save them for the unending barrage that she would unleash the moment either of them got back into view. She was caging the berserk mode, something it simply was not meant to do. Every light blinked and throbbed, waiting to be used, waiting to show what it can truly do as she had demanded of it.

(Should'a grabbed my damn sword! Should have grabbed a tank! Should have grabbed anything! But nooo! Just had to take the filly straight here! She got her own weapon, and I was flyin' this ain't fair!)

Instead, all it did was fire the reserve weapons at a tiny little dot, of whom she couldn't care less.

>Stop.

The screen remained trained right in the looping, twisting pegasus, her body so used to weathering storms easily able to cut through the rain of fire being unleashed upon her. She was no stranger to dodging projectiles, even if her usual fair of cannonballs were far slower than this.

>Stop!

She slammed down a hoof, giving in to the temptation long enough to let out a twisting, electrified taser bolas, hoping that this slight concession would give in and wrap the pegasus tightly enough she couldn't escape.

No such luck came, and when she saw the pony slip just over it, the combination red lights and throbbing in her own head proved too much

She snapped, again.

>STOP IT!

Her hooves started to slam down, but never reached the console.

Everything had gone black.

>...Oh no you did not.

Outside, Diamond Tiara very much did.

'DAW! GET CLEAR!'

She very much did manage to train her weapon on the head of the thing now covered in a black and inky substance, all while swinging around on a grappling hook launched from the side of her rocket launcher, struggling to keep it locked on even as her arc's descent began to slow.

(Ain't gotta tell me twice!)

Wings beat as hard as they could fly, and the moment they flapped her out of what the filly deemed 'acceptable', she all too happily pulled the trigger.

Her arsenal was nothing if not diverse. Concussion rounds, ice rounds, electrified netting, homing missiles, she had plenty to go around. But for all her tricks and new things, nothing beat the classics.

When the flying thing landed on it's mark, she felt a wave of nostalgia when she remembered finding that oh so special combination of chemicals in her school's science lab, when she had tossed them together, only partially knowing what they would do, and had bathed the changeling in flames.

When she saw the titanic thing light up, she couldn't help but smile, and think back to those much simpler days, when all she had was some scraps, a tube, and a drive to protect her town from the 'changeling invasion'.

'...I wonder what Fifty Six is up to these days...'

The roaring fire before her did not answer, except to crackle in that most satisfying of ways.

'Now... fall- OH SHIT!"

Her reflexes were just barely enough to save her when the thing started flailing.

>YA'LL THINK THIS IS GONNA STOP ME!?

What had before been an unstoppable, unbreakable, giant wall of metal and iron and power, had now completely changed. Now it was an unstoppable, unbreakable, giant wall of metal and iron and power, that was also on fire.

She would never admit it out loud, but she had not thought this one through.

(Aw, fuck.)

The pegasus warred with herself, watching the filly swing from place to place in an attempt to stay clear of the blind, aimless swings made her wince, knowing one bad swing would be all it took to bring her down.

All that kept her in place was the stark realization that even attempting to fly in there would all but certainly ensure she herself dealt with that.

>>28162305

(Oui! If you survive this, hook me up with some of those rocket booster things your boy uses to fly!)

She doubted the filly heard her. Doubted still she would actually get those boosters.

It was only half due to the fact she would likely die by giant flaming robot.

'Shiiiiittt!'

The flaming limb passed right over white and pink fluffy hair, nearly ripping it free from her scalp in one glorious, wide swing. She smelled the singed remains even getting that close had left behind, but could not think on it long enough to wonder what a mess she was going to look like when this was all over.

The limb uppercutting in her direction seemed far, far more important. She just barely had time to point TBRDLIATU straight down.

'OH FU-'

The clang that rang out shook the world.

'OOF!... I had it under control!'

The mare with the steel hard back she had crashed into showed remarkable restraint with her words, and any glares she might have internalized. Focusing on the limb she currently held steady helped on that matter, at least.

Her armor, even as powerful as it was, and even as much as it was backed by her own alicorn enhanced strength, strained under the burning limb who's flame roared inches from her face, nearly singeing the brim of her hat and leaving her unprotected face to sweat profusely beneath it.

"Hooeee, ya'll really did not think this thing through There ain't nothin' protectin' yer' dang face!"

'Hey! They have to see my face, my face is the whole point! They're not here to see 'giant formless metal shape', they're here to see Diamond Tiara!'

"Ya' know who else can see it? Literally anyone shootin' at you."

'That's what the shields are for!'

"This thing has sheilds!?"

'It has a lot of things! Why don't you give it back and I can fucking show you!'

The blond tail lashed out, whapping the filly right in the nose.

"Language!"

'You're not my mom! My mom doesn't care if I say it! Fuck fuck fuck fuck!'

"Will you-"

>STOP IGNORIN' ME!

>>28162323

Neither of them had noticed that the second limb had conspicuously gone missing, too focused on the idea that it would come around from their exposed back should it attack. The hadn't even entertained the idea the thing would swing around the entirety of the machine's frame, rotating a full one hundred and eighty degrees on an unseen gear, before slamming hard into the back of the claw the princess held back.

The princess's metal back was far less comforting and did far less protection when it slammed into her face.

The one positive in all this, for the filly at least, was that when driven forcibly into the ground, TBDRLIATU also doubled as The Best Damn Pole Vault In All The Universe. The mare who's spine bent at an angle when flipped over said newly dubbed TBDPVIATU and over the child who landed hard on the ground did not consider it as much a positive, even if she was happy she did not now have a bright red stain on her back.

'...Always looking out for me, Sexy.'

She openly brushed her cheek to the side of the thing, uncaring who saw.

'Now, let's... hg.... HGN!... Little help?'

"MAH BACK!"

'Stop making it all about you, TBDRLIATU is stuck!'

"Sounds good to me-"

'I will pull the trigger!'

There was never any doubt she was serious, no matter how foolish it seemed. It was with great, great reluctance that the princess got up, bent her spine back the way it should go and did as asked, helping the rocket launched become freed from it's ground confines with a single armor powered pull.

'Thank you. Now, let's kick this things ass-'

"Stop!"

'I said I could swear! You heard me!'

"That ain't what Ah' meant! Ah' meant stop, this ain't workin'! Look at it!"

The robot, without the telling grip of two hooves holding it back, had once again lost it's prey, and resorted to wild swings that broke wall and floor and anything that had managed to stay in tact thus far, few as that number already was.

"We ain't manged ta' even scratch that thing! We ain't left a single mark no matter what we threw at it!"

'Actually, pretty sure that the fire if nothing else would leave a-'

"Ain't the point! Mah' point is, ya' wanna play this game? Ya' wanna pretend ta' be cool cause ya' actually think life or death situations is cool, fine! But at least get it through yer' thick head when just explodin' somethin' ain't gonna work and ya' gotta think smarter!"

It hurt, it truly hurt the princess in a way she would never understand, when the filly blinked in confusion.

'Of course it will, you just have to hit it with something harder. Eventually, everything explodes... OH MY GOSH! I need to tell Mommy to put that on a shirt!'

She was going to spit blood at this rate.

'But later! First, I need to really hit that thing-'

"Dang it, Ah' said stop!"

It wasn't even a second after her hoof touched the filly's shoulder that TRBDLIATU was once more slipped underneath the elder's nose, and her hoof was just itching to pull the trigger.

She likely would have pulled it already, had the stern but pleading look not kept her from it.

"Just... stop. Yer' better than this."

She let the barrel lower, just past the princesses mouth, but never took it away.

"Ya'll are more than just explodin' things. Ya' didn't start this way, ya' were just puttin' stuff ta'gether and making things work with what ya' had, right? Look at that thing. Look at how much bells and whistles ya' grafted onto it, that ain't how you started at all, is it?"

She cursed herself for it, but her eyes betrayed her and looked over to her beloved weapon, and all the blinking lights and weaponry grafted into it from every angle. Even with all the scrapes, scratches and dings her battle had left on him, he still looked shiny, new, advanced beyond measure. He still looked like something right out of the future.

He looked odd.

>>28162342

"It used ta' just be a metal tube and some fireworks, ya' took nothin' and ya' made somethin' out of it. It wasn't about how big a blast ya'll could make, it was about you, a little firecracker with a lot ta' prove and nothin' but whatever scraps you could find, makin' somethin' that let you do it. Ya' didn't need these here fancy dingys, ya' just needed a little bit of what ya' had up here."

Her silver hoof poked her, right on top of the magenta streak in her hair.

"This wasn't about how advanced yer' boomstick was, Diamond Tiara, it was about how ya'll could figure out how to take on somethin' that ya' didn't have a chance in a million years of hurtin', and win. Ya' couldn't stop them or break them, but ya' figured it out. It wasn't about fightin', or maybe dying. It was trying. So... figure it out."

She pointed, straight at the thing that was closing in as process of elimination brought it nearer and nearer to their location.

"Figure out how ta' stop that thing. Ya' ain't never gonna break it, not in a million years, so figure out how ta' keep it from moving and force them to give it up. That thing's got weapons for days, but ain't nothing got weapons forever! Think! Use yer' dang brain, not yer' dang fancy smanshy tech! Yer' an earth pony, ya'll got ingenuity in you built in, use it, and figure out how to stop that thing!"

Finally, TBDRLIATU's nose hit the ground, suddenly feeling much too heavy.

The filly's mind was a blur at the princess's words, her stern glare and cocky smirk long since transformed into wide, blank eyes, and a neutral frown as she tried to keep everything inside from coming out. Her hooves remained tight, hard as stone as she held the thing she had worked so hard on to her chest.

She had made him to take on anything, win any battle, destroy any foe. She had designed and redesigned and added and reduced and so many other things, but it had all been for the same purpose.

Hitting harder.

That nostalgia came back, that feeling she had felt the very first time she had successfully fired off a rocket without falling and blowing herself up. That feeling she had when she finally let loose, and her weapon found it's mark on black chitinous skin. That feeling she had afterwards, when he got right back up, completely unharmed. It would not be the last time he shrugged off anything she could have thrown at him.

She had kept trying, after that day. Building bigger, building better, until when the robot came to kidnap Applebloom she had been there, and she had saved the day.

Idly, she wondered whatever happened to that medal Applejack had given her.

She remembered that, when it had been elaborate traps, containers full of acid, sneaking into the school office to steal the answers to a test, it all seemed so long ago.

Back then, TBDRLIATU had been far less... full.

He was more capable now, could do more in more situations, could take on foes that they hadn't even dreamed of back when he was just a simple tube of metal, but something about him was different.

"It's still in there, ain't it?"

She didn't know how the princess knew, only that she was right. That core, that simple piece, was still inside of him. Even after being bent, broken, blown up and twisted, she had kept that part of him inside. Repairing it whenever it had been damaged, covering it to help with any scars, but it was still there. It was still a part of him, and had never changed.

Even with all the weapons in the world to grant him power, the center had never changed.

No matter what she had done to make him stronger, he was always, The Best Damn Rocket Launcher In All The Universe. A scrappy little piece of nothing in a nothing town, who wanted to fight the big leagues, and one day managed.

"It's still there."

It took her far too long to realize that Applejack was pointing to her, and not the weapon.

"So... what's the plan?"

8/??

>>28162367

Her gaze left her rocket launcher, and her mind left all his additions and powers and magically charged weaponry and all he was capable of, and both drifted to the machine that had nearly reached them.

It was big, it was powerful, it was stacked to the brim and it was more heavily armored than a giant wall of the worlds strongest steel. It seemed sealed off, impossible to attack from any angle, impossible to pierce and impossible to melt and impossible to break.

It was big.

It was durable.

It was...

'We have to hit it.'

"What?"

The filly's head snapped back, her hoof pointing to the thing's top.

'We need to hit that part with everything! Blast it with all we've got!'

The mare felt a bit of disappointment creep in, a bit of remorse weighing her down at the thought it had all been for nothing.

All that kept her from letting it in was the filly's next words.

'Please.'

It was the singular, only time she had ever heard her say that word. The princess was nothing if not one who believed in positive reinforcement.

"...Okay."

A stern nod, a turn of her body, and she faced down the wildly flailing monstrosity.

'You have to hit it at the very top, as hard as you can. The Fillyboom armor should be able to do enough to wreck it. But...'

"But?"

'I'm going to need two minutes.'

She didn't even look back, didn't need to. When she heard the rocket launcher snap open, when she heard the filly pull one of his weapons loose, and start tinkering with it, she didn't need to hear anything more. She understood.

"Just promise me one thing."

The pink pony didn't answer her, but her silence said everything about how deep she listened.

"Just promise me, you'll let me handle the dangerous part, and you just worry about figurin' it out. Ya' got a lot left ta' learn, Diamond Tiara."

'...Hrm.'

It wasn't a yes. But, it wasn't a no either.

It was all she was going to get.

"Good enough. LETS GO!"

9/??

>>28162373

She hopped, her power infused legs leaping straight up, and into the fray.

And promptly getting smacked when a wild limb hit her in the face.

"AH' MEANT TO DO THAT!"

(Sure you did.)

She didn't even care to know the odds that she would be so unlucky to land right next to the ex-pirate.

(Little bugger got a plan?)

"Yep, distract that thing and then hit it."

(...I'm starting to doubt my choices.)

"Welcome ta' the club, sister!"

The mare fired back, leaving the pegasus behind as she charged towards the unending assault.

(...Ya' know what? Mechamare's got this one. I ain't getting smacked for her.)

Applejack's hooves came together, and she let loose a screeching whistle as she hovered in place before the machine.

"Hey! Over here! Ah'm the one ya'll want, right?"

Inside the confines of the mech, the little sister who had been screeching and ranting and wailing the entire time she had been unable to find her prey paused, her ears twitching in interest towards the familiar voice.

>...Oh, it's on now.

She didn't even hesitated.

She pushed every button.

"Ah've made a terrible mistake."

Her life choices exploded in her face. Much like the unending barrage of weaponry that clashed into her from every conceivable angle. She dodged most of it, her power enhaced body saw to that, but no machine no matter how fast or strong could move her from them all. A mere one percent, one for every hundred thing launched, met it's mark.

One percent that was more than enough to cover her completely, and shock her, sting her, batter her, push her, throw her, and even burn her beneath a cavalcade of non-lethal but quite painful weaponry.

She jerked until the weaponry stopped, it's systems needing a brief interval to reload it's cannon or projectile system. For the one brief moment of respite, the princess, barely hanging in the air as her wings gave off pitiful lopsided flaps, gave off a glare from her one still opened eye, and spat.

"Feel better now?"

10/??
>>
>>28162383

Inside, the filly's hoove paused in their frantic slamming on the buttons, a useless gesture as the blinking lights telling her that the systems had not yet finished their reloading process. She glared up at the tiny corner of the screen, the only one that hadn't yet been consumed, and snarled at the mare on the other side.

"Ya'... ya' want some more?"

The answer came when the reloading light went green.

Again, the princess found herself in an ocean of pain, surrounded on all side by the wave that crashed down on her and stimulated every single nerve of pain in her body in an attempt to 'harmlessly' neutralize her. She weathered it, every single one, and she did so far better than the now little more than pebbles behind her that had once been a majestic wall.

When the barrage ended again, the overheated systems already forcing in more to destroy her, she stayed in the air.

"Come on... give it to me."

The filly who attacked her shook, but she never stopped slamming the buttons.

>This is what you get this is what you get THIS IS WHAT YA'LL GET!

She made sure that the moment it was green, it was firing.

Once more she held on against the wave.

When it ended, she was still flying.

"Is that... that all ya' got?"

The power of her voice, and her defiance, reduced slightly when her wings could no longer match her will, and keeping her aloft proved impossible. Her body floated to the ground, no longer able to support her after all the damage it had sustained, and her hooves met cool earth shortly after.

"Ya'... get it out of yer' system yet?"

Her answer was to have every single weapon trained on her.

"...thought not."

'NOW, APPLEJACK!'

She needed no other word, no other commands. She acted, completely on instinct.

11/??

>>28162388

Every single drop of power, magic or otherwise, fueled into her limbs. Her entire body went taught and strung. The armor around her heard her call, and even with it's advance systems struggled to keep up. But keep up, it did.

With a booming crack of thunder as she broke the sound barrier, she launched with everything she had, right at the giant head.

The armor on her hind legs cracked and shattered the moment she made contact, and even with all the weight within it, the massive beast tilted backwards.

But it would not fall.

"Dang it! No! Ah'-"

'PERFECT!"

The princess's own despair was not shared by her companion. There was a clack, a sound of a hook sinking into stone, and she soon realized that whatever the filly had implied earlier of staying out of danger was nothing short of an utter lie.

She flew straight towards the still massive inferno covered mechanical giant, and worst of all, straight beneath the spinning, grinding tread wheels as she headed beneath it.

"DIAMOND, NO!"

The filly doubtlessly couldn't hear her, wouldn't have cared had. She slipped beneath the metal base, close to the grinding gears and mashing weight of each tread so closely she could feel tiny hairs being pulled from her body. More still found themselves burned as her body slipped past the blaze of her own making, the heat enough to make her eyes feel dry and cracked. In a single moment, she felt utterly consumed by searing, painful feelings from all ends, all while TBDRLIATU pulled her with all it had.

In a single blink that felt an eternity, it was all over, and she came out the other side. The moment she was clear, she rolled, firing off a single shot upwards, before she came to a sudden, and painful stop, wheezing for breath and sporting a few new bruises.

The world stopped when her rocket pierced the flames to find it's mark on it's massive back.

When the smoke cleared and nothing was different, it started up again.

>...HA! YA'LL DIDN'T DO NOTHIN'-

>>28162400

If she had been paying attention to the universe, Applebloom would have known better.

As it was, when she felt the explosion, truly felt it beneath her, she had to be content with realizing what she had done, in hindsight.

>No...

The thing lurched.

>No nooo...

The thing rumbled.

>NO NO NO NO NOOOO-

And then, finally, when the massive weight no longer tilted back, when the full might of the armor that had been their bane shifted forwards, it finally fell.

>NOOOO!

The world gave way beneath her, and everything went weightless for a moment. Her condiments of slushie and popcorn scattered everywhere, messily splatting the internal systems. Anything not nailed down became a tornado of items that hit her from all ends, battering her with the luxuries she had so enjoyed up to this point.

>NOOOOOO-

Then, just as suddenly as it had begun, it stopped.

>...HA! HA HA HA! STILL GREEN, YA' BIG BULLY! AH'M STILL GREEN!

Truthful as her grandmother would be, everything was still working, every system operational, everything was still ready and primed to go.

>NOW AH'M GONNA-

But nothing moved.

No matter which device she tried to shift, nothing moved. Nothing reacted.

>Wha.. what?

It was only them that she noticed that her vision was no longer covered in the black tar, or the flames. The one corner of her world she had been able to see out of had gone dark.

A dark, brown kind of dark.

>...what?

'For the record...'

She could hear her foe, her ultimate enemy, but she could not see them.

'Fire off annnyyything you like, I'm willing to wager you only have, oh, fifteen meters between you and open air. Maybe you'll get lucky and you won't fall through... but I doubt it.'

It hit her, and even the soundproof walls all around could only barely hold in her scream.

>>28162408

By the time she realized what had happened, the three ponies were already gathered around the mech, looking at the top of the thing's head, the only visible part left, down a scant meter beneath them in the hole it had fallen into.

"Heh... ya' did good, Diamond Tiara. Told ya', more than just explosions."

For once, the filly didn't even try to hide her beaming smile.

(But she used an explosive for-)

"Don't ruin the dang moment."

One stare was all it took to find agreement on the matter.

(Is this really gonna hold it for long? Can't just keep shooting and come up?)

'She's too close to the base of the city. That thing tries to fire off a weapon, straight down it goes.'

(Can't the thing fly?)

'It could... if I hadn't hit it with some expanding foam on it's back. It turns on, it'll just make the foam expand. Not for long, won't last forever, but plenty of time for it to hit the ground.'

(That gonna be enough?)

'Judging by it's mass, I doubt it could take a sheer drop into the side of a cliff like that. One bad rock and boom, all that weight will crush who's inside like a grape.'

"WAIT WHAT!? APPLEBLOOM! DON"T FIRE ANYTHIN'! AH'M SERIOUS! JUST... PRETTY PLEASE!? PLEASE AH' SAID!"

The dead, cold silence that followed it could have chilled even the raging lava within the most deadly of volcanoes.

'...I'm sorry, come again?'

It hit the pony, right there, that she had never once told the pair who was inside of the mech.

(Who the fuck is-)

Her answer came when the top of the machine popped open, and with it, out popped a dirty, sticky, bruised and very angry looking yellow filly.

'The blankflank was driving the-'

A yellow filly wielding a long pipe that Diamond Tiara likely wished she had noticed before said apple family member hit her in the side of the head with it.

'OW!'

14/??
>>
>>28162415

Her first target out of the way, it wasn't long before she set her sights on the other source of all her anger.

'YOU LITTLE-... what the fuck!?'

A quick movement by Daw in retaliation was stalled by nothing more than a stern, quick hoof by the princess.

"Still ain't got it out of yer' system yet?"

Angry, red eyes focused on her, and her teeth nearly cracked the pole she was holding.

"...Well, go on then-"

The first blow came quickly, and without warning.

Applejack never even flinched.

>You ignored me! Ya'll ignored me! Ah' can't believe you ignored me and then ya' had the apples ta' act like ya'll knew what was best for me and ya' needed to look out for me!

They came, again and again, and Applejack never moved away, she let the other filly hit her as much as she wanted, as hard as she wanted.

>Ya' just kept pushin' me away while ya' did yer' stupid princess thing forever! Ah' thought ya'll left us at first! Ya' didn't even tell us till Dash found out! Then ya' ignored me! You... Ah' wanted to go with you! Ah' could'a helped! Ah' could'a helped with the changelings! But no! Ya' gotta wait till Ah' almost get eaten and beaten and then almost get the whole world exploded and now it's a problem! Now ya'll care! That's when you care, when it don't matter no more, and ya' forced me ta' do it just ta' feel better about yer'self! Ah' hate you! AH' HATE YOU!

No blow, no matter how hard she swung, reached the elder sister as much as the words did.

>AH' HATE YOU AH' HATE YOU AH' HATE YOUUUUUU!

Finally, the pole gave way, breaking long before her body did, and the filly was reduced to hammering with nothing more than hooves.

>AH HATE YOU! AH' HATE YOU! AH' HATE YOU! Ah'...

She waited, at least until the hooves lost most of their force, before a single foreleg wrapped in broken metal bent around the smaller filly's frame.

>Ah' hate you...

"...Ah' know.."

15/??
>>
>>28162445

Her words were slurred from the bruise on her cheek, but every whisper came through clear.

"And ya' should."

>...Ya' didn't even...

Her sniffles were met with a burst of energy, a few short blows to the broad orange chest, before they calmed down again.

"Go ahead, hit me."

She did, doing little more than ruffling the dust on her chest at this point, but she had to try.

"Hit me all ya' want, ain't nothin' gonna hurt me more... than not bein' there when ya' got yer' cutie mark."

Finally, the blows stopped.

"But just listen to me long enough to hear this, and believe me just long enough ta' know it's true, Ah' don't care if you don't do either ever again. Just listen... Mom and dad would be so proud of you."

The shaking followed soon.

"You're right. Ah' didn't do this for you.. Ah' did it for me. Ah' just felt so... scared, when Ah' realized how much Ah' missed, how much in danger you were all the time. Ah' didn't think, not fer' a dang minute, or Ah' would've stopped. Didn't think at all... or Ah' would've known ya'll can handle yer'self better than anyone thought. Ah' didn't do it because Ah' wanted to rule over you, it's because... Ah' love you so much, and you scared me, and it hurt. Ah'm sorry... this is all mah' fault, and if Ah' had just payed attention to you for a minute, none of it would have happened. Ah'm sorry, hit me as much as you want, Ah' deserve it. Just please... keep it on me. It's mah' fault, not theirs, and Ah'm so sorry."

The tears followed them soon after.

"Ah'm sorry.'

She held her, for as long as she could, as the filly began to cry.

"Ah'm so sorry... and iffin' you'll let me, Ah' want to try again. Ah' don't deserve it, haven't earned it, but please... just let me try."

The little yellow child in her chest sniffled, heaved a bit with emotion.

"Yer' still mah' sister, no matter what happens."

>>28162454

Then, without warning, she broke free, and turned around. With her eyes clenched shut, she quickly marched away, her head held low to try to hide all the tears on her face, her ruffled ribbon on her head bobbing with every stomp as she moved as fast as she could away from everything.

Surprisingly, it was the little pink filly who moved to chase after her first, but an emotion wracked sound from the princess kept her in place. She slowly shook her head, her own cheeks glistening as she watched the red head grow smaller and smaller.

"She'll come back... when she's ready."

There was nothing more to be said, or done.

It was over.

~Huh.~

A voice from the opposite hallway jerked every attention away from the now empty spot where the filly had been. There, clear on the other side with a look of careful inspection, was none other than the one who had, quite unwillingly but all the same, been the source of all this.

Twilight Sparkle took a careful survey of the area, noting all the wreckage and destruction and remains of the weapons, before her vision finally landed on the mech buried in the earth.

~Huhhh...~

A thoughtful, considerate hoof tapped her chin, and the pony finally shrugged.

~Well, it's not as bad as the last time two sisters fought, I guess?~

They honestly had nothing to say to that.

'...Can I have my armor back now?'

"Huh? Oh.. sure."

Without even thinking, the still teary-eyed pony hooked her hoof to her chest, and with one tug ripped the cracked and torn remains of the armor from her body, shredding the already badly mangled thing into a ball of strips of silver and lumps of thick metal, shaking off the last pieces before bundling it up and dropping it to the side.

'...Thanks. You know there was a button to make it come off, right?'

There was surprisingly little venom in her voice, instead it was more simple sarcasm without any real bite.

"Nope. Don't know how that dumb doohicky worked."

>>28162466

'You missed a little.'

The orange mare's hind legs shifted uncomfortably.

"Probably not gonna want this back.

'Right... Daw! Come on, we're getting out of here, our job is done, and I am not including this in the publicity pics. This mess is better left forgotten.'

~You know it's not going to be, you can't just say 'don't talk about it' and everyone ignores the bright lights and obvious end of world imagery.~

'I know, but I like to pretend we're in a world just stupid enough that could happen.'

(So for the record, this wasn't, like, treason or something was it?)

"Naw, yer' fine. If anythin' Ah' should thank you for helpin' out."

(Awesome. So, where are we going?)

'Milkshakes, steed!'

(Don't call me that.)

'I only promise to wait until we get there.'

"Wait!"

The filly paused mid-walk to the pegasus, giving the princess a sideline look.

"Just... iffin' you ever come back..."

The rest went unsaid.

'...I'll always come back when the day needs saving.'

And with it, everything the filly meant. It wasn't what the princess had wanted, completely, but it was a start.

'See you later... Applejack.'

She hopped on the pegasi's back, and with a dramatic thrust of her hoof pointed to where she wanted to go.

(You're treating, right?)

For once, the mouthy pony went silent.

(...heh.)

The mare was less so, as she chuckled all the way into the air, leaving the two best friends behind.

~You going to pay for all this?~

"Iffin' they don't throw me in the dungeon."

~They can't, on castle grounds, and we're not pressing charges. Especially not against the minor.~

"Then Ah'm just gonna have to pay for everything and apologize, it's all Mah' fault."

~It's a start, I guess.~

"Lotta things started today."

~...Hey, Applejack?~

"Yeah?"

~Don't ever ask me to build a robot for you again.~

>>28162487

There was a crack, a rumble and grinding sound as stone mashed against stone, and abruptly the top of the head, already low, fell completely out of sight, and took with it a rush of air. Internally, Twilight bitterly noted it should be fine and she would have to pick it up, so long as nothing got in top and pierced the magical core.

When she heard a very distinctive chime of a one in a million shot of the thing flipping over, and something going straight up inside of it to hit said core, followed by a lightshow unlike any other as that magic glamorously detonated beneath the unpopulated barren rock beneath the castle, she let out a little prayer of thanks to whoever was up there.

"...Ah' think Ah' can manage that."

The battle, and everything with it, was over.

But perhaps, if the jovial tone of the once friend who had left, or the stare of the filly just out of sight was any indication, not everything was over.

Some things had begun to be fixed.

Now, came the hard part.

"Gotta lot of work to do to keep me occupied anyway."

She had to keep fixing.

Yep. Like Twilight said, you can be a massive, destructive, selfish jerk all you want... as long as everyone up on top is your friend and covers your reckless ass, nothing can be done to you.

But yeah, I'm sure it is the last we will hear of this massive event that took up so many threads. It's just like every other big massive arc that we had, no changes at all.

Yep, everything is going right back to normal. Status quo is God around here after all.

>We established that it will do the exact opposite because that is how narratives work
>That is just showing that while she is confident in her control she was not ready to leave her bugqueen shaped training wheels, but we couldn't pair them forever.

And Canterlot as a whole still is mad at AJ for saying that they were wrong to beat up Chitty. SO it doesn't even affect her PR
>>
>>28163370
You know it's funny how we can complain about a show never making any meaningful changes, but now that we have our own thing going, we shy away from big status quo changes like Chitania dying, the technological level of Equeatria advancing or any thing like that because it'd be too much work.

We've become what we loathe.
>>
>>28163484
Chitty dying wouldn't be that big of a change, and it would be much less work actually, as she was mostly neutral up to recently. She wasn't an overly antagonistic force between cordyceps and the Sunset thing, the crime Empire is a much bigger radical change then her dying would have been, and requires a whole lot more set up and work to make valid.

And it was just two guys who were worried about the technological change, Pennydrop has been arming nations since the kingsmoot, that change already happened. It's just that Sunset is bringing it down to the rest of the world, not just anyone except to the main nation.

There is not five threads that goes by that we don't end up with some kind of big change, either to the characters or the world.
>>
>>28163467
>>Rarity's shit was passing anyway and you can't retroactively pass a law to punish anyone
You absolutely can, but that's not what the problem is. The problem is that the proposal will allow others to determine if they committed a crime and need to be punished or pay for their mistakes, it has nothing to do with creating new crimes to charge them with, only if they skirted out of the ones they already committed, it's the same as reopening a case because new evidence has entered into the equation.

Buuuuuull shit. There would be many ramifications, maybe not immediate, but their would be ramifications. Also offing a strong (STRONKEST) potential ally would be dumb and after all the effort to try and make right, it would just be lazy to off Chitty without at least clearing the air before both fuck off never to see one another again.

>>28163692
We haven't done radio or phones yet, there are just towers that will presumably transfer stuff., because we are in a magical world, we can probably do something way more fun with it then just bring in real-world Tech alone.

Like, instead of phones, it just boost the magical signal make up a little Hologram, lIke what Trixie made in magical dual..
>>
>>28163842
Or the towers will transmit brainwashing waves all over the world. Because, you know, those guys at EVO sure love being mind controlled into being nice.

>>28163842
That's where I was going to go with it with my other work(NOT the guy who introduced the EVO thing, to clarify), because our-tech in Equestria? Boring, and makes no sense. Equestria is a magical world, if they do have tech, it's magical based, because that's what they know and what they have. I don't wanna see an I-PONE, I wanna see a little version of what Celestia conjured up in the other world that anyone can carry around.

That said, it's a lot more fun if you also take into account that some might not be so happy if magic that used to require being a top-tier wizard goes to literally everybody.
>>
So can we all agree a technological revolution for Equestria is unstoppable at this point? If so, hey, let's collaborate on our vision.

Which way should we take it?

I mean, boy howdy do I love Deus Ex, but I think I might start screaming if we get augmented ponies or worse yet, nanomachines.

>Not "Get ready to brawl, I'LL KILL THEM ALL" just to make fun of her comic counterpart.

ONE JERB
>>
>>28163936
>Which way should we take it?

Keep it magical and fantastical, don't make fucking "Equestria girls but there's actual ponies this time".

Also, on augmented ponies, Flash exists...
>>
>>28163936
I agree I don't want norm-tech in Equestria, but the idea of more technologically impressive stuff making it in would be fun. I can already see that there's limitations, like the screen-magic can't go outside a city, but they can cast their voices across entire countries so long as they have repeater towers, so Fuzzy and the Buzz can make all the jokes they want about that being a good thing, and if it ever flipped they would be classified as a genocide-level event.
>>
>>28164045
>Also, on augmented ponies, Flash exists...

I still have trouble dealing with the fact that we let Twilight cut up a perfect healthy pony and convert him into an alpha state of mechanical monstrosity...
>>
>>28163936
I say push forwards with the idea in mind to create conflict, and so long as we have that there to just go nuts, it's all for fun.

>>28164104
He apparently volunteered(thinking it was something else until he went under, then freaked out when he woke up and immediately broke out) and it's totally reversible, he just won't go see her. She can have him back to 100 percent normal at ANY TIME, she just can't find him and the fact she can't find him makes her fall into screams and crying every time he's brought up.
>>
>>28164104
We... She... things happened... we really didn't think we'd get this far, so jokes made for lulz back then when we thought the 20th thread was something to commemorate ended up having far reaching and sometimes devastating consequences in the future.

Some we were able to retcon... like AJ raping shining with her plant magic waaaay back when he was still our primary butt monkey... others like Flash... there's was no fixing or getting rid of that.
>>
>>28164104
I think early thread we had someone who really hated Flashlight and wanted a reason they wouldn't end up together. And we really didn't care because Flash Sentry was irrelevant.

He thought they were going to hook up, it was not the kind he thought. 29 also learned this lesson.

But, like, Flash Sentry is already a robot-pony and is having a bad time due to his basically average/below average intelligence and need of constant repair.

It'd be cool if he became an example of why we shouldn't have augmentations, with Twilight as the spokespony.

Yeah... no. If anything he should be the poster boy of not taking science too far, but that's all. Twilight shouldn't have to bring up her mistakes to make an example why, she's done that enough to herself as is. And while we're on the subject of Flash and Twilight, I fully support the TWIENCE! that made him the pone he is today... cause Flash is shit and should suffer for being a Chad.

I mean she could fix him though. He isn't that much of a character and is still be lugged around near death by Fizzle in wherever the hell fluttershy put them.

That's implying he wants to get fixed at this point instead of just keeping them as a reminder for his hate. People do that kind of thing.

I'd rather he be fixed as well. Being as he is currently is doing him no favors, and sweeping what Twi did under the rug would go against what we put AJ/Chryssy/everyone else through whenever they mess up or do something unsavory.

I always did like Flash but ever since he devolved into whatever he is right now I haven't been able to think up a thing for him to do. Fixing him, or at least making him not so worthless, would probably help him out this cycle of nothingness.

Ponies with prosthetics already exist in canon (albeit an alternate timeline), but at the very least it shows Equestria is capable of making automail like Full Metal Alchemist independent of Twilight.

The best way to go about technology advancement is to make a steampunk or magitek equivalent of a modern technology if possible, otherwise I guess introduce modern technology X slowly, so that it doesn't overpower the magic part of this world.

“Right… here?”

>No, no, right… here!

“So right… there?”

>Not there, here! Right th- a few more inches to the right, no, too much, go bac- wait, come forward a bit, no, not that way- wow, you’re makin’ this way more difficult than I know it is….

“I’m sorry!”

>Maybe if ya had less legs, ya know, ya might be able to touch the right spo- nope, still wrong.

“Drats on a mat!”

>…what?

“Sometimes my momma didn’t want to curse in front of me so she made up these other sayings. She had a whole bunch, like, um… ‘blood on the rug’, and ‘guts in a rut’, and ‘waste of paste’, and-”

‘What. The. Fuck?’

“Ooooo, no, never that, she tried not to say… oh, hello there!”

Arana waved one of her eight legs at the mare now frozen after rounding the corner.

The mare who didn’t wave but instead stared back with eyes as wide as saucers.

>Hey, you over there! You seen my Chitania action figure?

“I thought it was a doll…?”

>What? No! It’s an action figure! Dolls’re for mares!

“I… okay.”

‘You… w-what… what are you?’

>Her? That’s an Arana! But forget about that- my figure, have ya seen it?

The mare continued to stare in horror at the sight of the spider-changeling hybrid.

>Is she okay?

“That mare? No, I really don’t think so. Bluey’s friend Haymaker warned me to stay away from her, he said something about ‘mentally unstable’ and ‘psychotically propelled’….”

>Ooooh… so does any of that mean ‘action figure finding expert’? ‘Cause that’d be just so awesome right now.

“Um, no.”

>Draws!

“…on a mat?”

>>28171400

While Fifty-Six fixed Arana with a glare that quickly turned into a reluctant laugh, Screwloose began to tremble, her eyes twitching from one leg to the other in a blur.

Breathing was getting problematic.

Why was it suddenly so hot?

Her chest was heaving, thoughts getting muddled.

She didn’t realize changelings came looking like… like that- a hybrid? With a spider? How? Were there more? How many? What could it do? What would it do that it shouldn’t and how easily could it snatch the flesh from her bones?

She didn’t realize none of her questions were getting answers.

She didn’t realize she was holding one of her scalpels in a shaky hoof until she began pointing it.

“…Um-”

Whatever the hybrid was about to say, Screwloose only had one thought: protect the other little changeling. She figured that one had to be the ‘butt-lover’, he mentioned the doll, after all. One of the precious ‘little three’ that Twelve said everyone had to look out for. And if that meant something to him, then it meant something to her.

‘C-come here, Fifty-Six… come over here next to me….’

For the life of her, Arana couldn’t figure out why that mare was pointing such a sharp blade in her direction, and obviously neither did 56 by the way he glanced at her, then at the mare.

>Why?

2/3
>>
>>28171409

Screwloose blanched, not entirely sure how long she had until that hybrid decided to leap, and then she could only picture herself being pulled apart by those multiple legs. She turned green, but still tried to sound reassuring, something wholly new to her.

‘I, uh… just- you stupid little cockroach- just… I….’

And then it came to her, a way to get the little one away from that hybrid and on her side, even if it meant….

‘M-m-my butt is… it’s rrrrrrr-ruh-really soft…’

It was like 56 downright teleported. One second he was way over there, and the next, nuzzling his cheeks across Screwloose’s hips in a brooding fashion.

>Pretty soft, yeah….

She didn’t hear a single word. The urge to black-out was strong, having something so close to her rear, but she stayed standing somehow, heart thudding sporadically, still holding that hybrid at bay.

Wordlessly, she began to move her petrified legs in reverse, backing 56 up with her until they were back around the corner and gone.

Leaving Arana to stand there looking beyond lost.

“Um… okay, you two, uh… have a great time?”

She waved to nothing, smiling anyway.

I doubt she acted any different around Chitty, save being nicer to her because she liked her.

Fun fact, Chitty once carried Sciderella out of a forest fire by her neck like a kitten while she grumped about it. That happened.

Chitty was like her only friend growing up, and that probably took a while and I doubt it was Chitty that initially wanted to hang around together.

>>28172828
>I doubt it was Chitty that initially wanted to hang around together.

It actually was, wasn't it? I vaguely remember that Arana said Sciderella was in danger one day and needed saving, and Chitty was the only one who gave a damn enough to show up and save her bacon. Sciderella didn't trust her at first, Chitania just kept showing up and saving her, and Sciddy ended up seeing her as her only friend.

>Welcome to Late Night /pa/ with your hosts the Pink Pony Club! It's during this time that content doesn't matter, and we tuck you in! Now for our main segment...STORYTIME!!!

[Hello, I've been asked to tell a bedtime story. Once upon a time...there were 3 pink ponies. A big pony.]

"Um, she means big as in tall."

[An average size pony]

>Totally average!

[And a tiny filly.]

'I'm not tiny. I'm compact.'

[Sure. Whatever. One day they took a stroll to the market when the big one says.]

'How come we never take the bridge? Isn't it faster than the road? We'd be able to go straight instead of around.'

[The average pony says]

>I like the scenic route though.

[and the tiny one says.]

'No, because it's falling apart.'

"But there's a sale today and we need to beat the rush."

>I don't know if it's worth it.

"Confetti is 75% off."

>What are we waiting for!?

[Once they reached the bridge however...]

'It's a dilapidated rope bridge. I know this is a straightforward path, but we should take the long way instead.'

>Nah, we'll be fine. Besides, think of it as an adventure!

"Adventure!"

[After crossing halfway across the bridge, it snaps and they plummet to their deaths.]

>"'AHHHHHHH'"

[They wanted to take take the easiest straightforward way and avoid the long roundabout path, but in doing so it lead to their doom. The moral of the story is if you want quality bridges, you should contract Golden Bridges Inc for all your bridge building needs and get to where you need to go...THE END]

>Annnnd with BREAKING NEWS, IT’S FUZZY AND THE BUZZ!

~Fuzzy and the Buzz coming at you, 97.1!~
~Sound the horn!~

“Top story, the battle has ended, and we’re saved!”

>Earlier reports have to be refuted, we did not send Buzz out there with a bouquet of flowers in order to have the robot self destruct.

“OHHHHH!”

~I have an explosive personality too!~

>But in fact, it seems to be a combined force of both the princess and none other than Diamond Tiara who managed to take it down, along with some help from a previously unnamed Pegasus who we eventually discovered is name Jacqueline Daw.

“You might know these three mares as ‘so far out of Fuzzy’s league he’s not allowed within a hundred steps of them.”

>OHHHHHH!

~R-right… that’s the reason…~

“The only question we’ve not been able to answer yet is who, if anyone, was driving the thing, what Princess Twilight had to do with it as she appeared on the scene later, and why it exploded.”

>So, in other words, we know as much as Buzz does about mares. He’s got the surface stuff down, but other than that he’s lost.

“OHHHHHHHH!’”

~Is it the cinnamon sugar swirls?~

>Stay with us and we’ll keep you updated as it develops!

“But in the meantime, sit back and take a breather with us as we all celebrate that we made it out once again with the new hit single from the Bree Zies, “Staying alive!”

>Sweetie
“Babs”
‘Sweetie Doll’
~Spike~
~~~

~I HAVE SO MANY QUESTIONS!~

It was not the first time Spike had said that. It would not be the last.

Sweetie Belle was likely to keep blowing bubbles without answering all the same.

“GET SOME!”

The other filly next to him, crouched low in the same wall of brick for cover, popped up just long enough to throw a molotov cocktail over the barricade, towards the same area where the white filly’s bubbles were drifting.

~One of you is using exactly the wrong amount of force, and I have no idea which one!~

He heard a clank of something bouncing up against his barricade, and then the whole thing shook as whatever had been thrown detonated in a wash of fire and smoke.

~…I think it might be Sweetie Belle.~

>Don’t you get it? I just need one lucky shot, and then I’ll catch the grenades in the bubble and float it over to the doll version of me, and she’ll be like ‘uh whaaaa!?’ and then explode!

The drake had no response to the smiling, confident filly before she popped back up to let loose another round of bubbles.

~It… what she said is plausible, isn’t it? It sounds stupid, but it might actually happen.~

The brown filly shrugged while lighting another bottle.

“Dumber stuff has happened today!”

~I do not doubt that, I doubt absolutely none of that, and that’s sad.~

Another shake from behind the barricade, and cracks began to form.

When Sweetie ducked back down, her face was considerably blacker than it had been before.

>Okay, maaayybe my aim isn’t that good. I’m willing to admit when I make a mistake, I’m not dumb. My head isn’t full of fluff like some ponies!

‘RACIST!’

Their foe doubled down on the bombs for that one.

~Where did she even get grenades!?~

“At the school, they hoof them out to kids now. Haven’t you heard? All the rage, way cheaper than apples.”

~…please tell me you’re messing with me.~

She gave him a hard, deadpanned look.

1/3
>>
>>28178990
~I know, but I legit need to know the school isn’t giving out grenades, please.~

>No, silly! She got them from the armory!

~That’s better-wait a damn minute, how’d she get in the armory!?~

>The hole.

~What hole!?~

>The one in the side, it’s wide open.

“Where do you think I got my rifle from?”

She held up the thing proudly, seemingly oblivious to the stare the dragon gave her.

~…You’re-~

“I’m not giving it back.”

~You absolutely are. But first…~

The dragons eyes went hard, and his finger wrapped it’s way around Charity’s trigger.

~I’ve got a problem to deal with… and it’s dragon time.~

>What else would it be?

The dramatic flourish the dragon had been starting paused, and he gave her a look so flat a marble would stand still on it.

>What? What else would it be? All the time is dragon time with you, isn’t it? Is there like, a pony time? Do you have ‘griffon time’ or something? What does that mean? Does that mean you sit on an egg? Do griffon’s sit on eggs? They have cat legs though, why would they have eggs if their stomachs are cat like? Is that it? When you have griffon time do you just act like one thing but your lower half is another? Do you-

~Please stop.~

>-but-

~Just… just stop.~

>Alright, but you really shouldn’t-

~GRAAHHHH!~

He finally popped up, screaming in frustration as he tried to aim at the target that was slipping back behind it’s own cover, the fluffy faux tail with a color scheme just like the filly causing him discomfort.

~AHH-UMF!~

His scream was plugged, and his timing could not have been worse.

~Aw fuh-~

The one in a million grenade that had been shot into his mouth went off, blowing him back and skidding the back of his head and back along the ground.

>SPIKE! NOOOOO!

“Okay, I’ll admit it…That was really cool.”

2/3
>>
>>28178999
The filly cradled him, brushing the black remains off the side of his mouth, and shaking him so hard his already swirling eyes rolled around his head.

>Speak to me!

~But Twi, I dun wanna go to skool, becaush I’m alllll gwowed up…~

>He’s fine!

Without a care, the filly let him back down.

>Phew, that was… OH NO! Sweetie Doll is getting away!

The brown Manehatten filly looked away from her awe, and paused her applauding just long enough to see the fake looking white rear grow smaller in the distance.

“Oh no you don’t, we’re not done yet! Let’s go!”

>Should we take Spike?

“Do you want to drag him?”

>Eh, he’ll be fine. Let’s go!

Off again, both fillies charged to continue their battle, leaving the dragon lying on his back on the ground.

~…No, it’s fine, it feels Bluebloodbot just held me down and shoved a long, hard, tangy metal pole down my throat over and over, but I’m not… oh wow, why is that where my mind went? And why could I see that so vividly?~

If only to test, he raised up Charity towards the retreating not-a-filly who had blasted him so, and pulled the trigger.

The shot went wide.

~The good news, I’m probably still a straight shooter, I just have a concussion… right?~

No answer came.

~…I chose this over fighting a super robot. For a mare I'm not dating... My choices are not always the best.~

{CRESCENT BLADE!}
The Alpha's tusks extend and block Luna's scythe grinding against each other.
{I admit...I was beginning to think we'd never meet again.}

[We both knew this was inevitable. If it makes you feel better. I hold no resentment what-so-ever that you're ruining my farm.]

{I WILL END YOU!}

[Would you end this kitten?]
The Alpha pulls out the most adorable big eyed kitten the group had ever seen.

-Mew. Can I haz snuggles?-

>Dash
“Discord”
‘FS’
~Zephyr~
~~~~~

“Dash, I’m scared.”

It was very likely that, in this moment, the world was mere seconds from ending.

>I’m not.

Rainbow Dash did not care one little bit.

‘The most irresponsible, terrible, awful, no good just dumb thing you could have possibly done!’

~I’m sorry! Mostly!~

‘How could you use my name to get hired for so many jobs, and then not even have the decency to stay around! You made everyone think I was going to throw them in a dungeon for not hiring you, when they shouldn’t even have given you the time of day!’

~I never said that, and any implications are easily denied!~

‘That doesn’t make any of this better! That doesn’t even come close! Why would you think that this is better you are making me so… soo…’

~Peeved?~

There was a flash of light indescribable, like looking into a kaleidoscope while simultaneously going colorblind.

~…I would have preferred peeved.~

The Stare was in full force.

Both on Fluttershy, and on the giant six legged, green tiger in battle armor she stood on.

~Er, whoops?~

Slowly, Discord poked his head over Dash’s shoulder.

“…Is this how we die?”

>If it is…

She felt the smile cross her face when the tiger roared, and the stallion screamed.

>This is fine.

I'd update more, but I'm pretty burnt out. I've been trying to force myself more and more and it ends up taking a lot of my brain power to continue because I over think it constantly. I think I only managed to churn this one out because I finally threw out my plans and just let it flow.

>This was a terrible idea!

“You mean brilliant!”

“Seriously, why did nobody tell us the stadium had a retractable pool!?”

“It was right there the whole time, right under our hooves!”

“An official, Equestrian Games level pool that was right freaking there! We could have dived in at any time!”

“It’s… it’s beautiful.”

“So big, so majestic, so-“

>WATER!

“…Yes, asshole, we realize that pools are generally filled with water, thank you captain obvious.”

>You know what isn’t obvious to you?

“Nooooo, what?”

>THAT WE CAN’T FUCKING SWIM!

“…” “…” “…” “…Oh riiiiight.”

“Huh.”

“We did not think this through.”

“…Scoop it all out and replace it with a ballpit?”

>How are we going to scoop out an competitive level swimming pool!?

“…Get the buckets.”

>But-

“GET THE BUCKETS!”

>Cadence
"???"
~~~~

>Where did ya goooo?

The sorrowful howl of the offkilter royal reverberated in the emptiness of the hallway, her wobbling head barely able to notice how hollow the world had become in such a few short seconds.

>Where... where'd I go?

The fuzziness could not clear for her long enough for the thought to reach through her clouded head, of why she had wandered down this hallway, in this section of the castle, at this time. Her last memory was that of playing happily as she chased an ice cream cart, though never did she catch it, all while she mused on the wonderful life she had found and held. Such a jumbled mess of thoughts could only occur in a mind as befuddled as hers, and she would have found it strange she could no longer cling to a one of them, had that very ailment prevented such.

>Looovesss innn bloooommm...

Her drunkard mind slurred back to the base state of singing that most wonderful of songs, the tune that had stuck with her ever since that magical day all her dreams had come true. The music, as sung by Twilight herself, was a tune she would never get out of her head, no matter how filled with an unreachable fog it would grow, and she wouldn't have it any other way.

In her state such as she was, she was utterly unable to tell when the world began to dim, growing ever so slightly darker the further down the seemingly unending hall she wobbled. Soon, the darkness around the corner of her vision seemed to bleed it's way in reality, and the smooth and shining floor of crystal was all the light she had in this world encased by utter black.

>A beeeauutt... beautifull briiiiiiiidddee...

Her steps grew weary, and she could not point to a single reason why. No one thing took the gait from her steps, no single outside force made every lift of her leg more arduous, it could have just as easily been a crafty invisible mime for all she knew, laying weights on her back.

Whatever it was pressed down on her, much like the dark closing in.

1/3

>>28180333

Further and further she stumbled, the dark and the hum in her head growing more intense with every step, until they both had grown to such a state even her eyes that could have barely seen the rain in a storm could spot that something was amiss, and the head so filled with emptiness gained a simple spark of realization to light up in the shade.

>A... h-haa... handddsoommee grooommm...

Her song grew more unstable, and with it her every step. Her mind clung to the thought of the one she sung about, the bright white stallion who was every bit as handsome and wonderful as she had praised. She thought to him, and thought of him holding her up.

His light could not shine on.

>T...two hearts...

Her horn fizziled with light, a spell cast out of as much instinct as desperation, but no more illumination came. Even with what she knew to be the wall a mere few steps before her, the light could not pierce the veil.

>Becoming... one...

It was only here, as the adrenaline began to seep through, that she began to slow down.

There, in a single patch of crystal surrounded by darkness, the princess finally called out.

>...hellllooo?

"You called?"

When someone answered back, she nearly fell on her thin, small rear.

>GAH!... whaaa who wuhh!?

Steps so powerful they sent an echo down the empty hallway called back to her, summoned by the pair of floating, glowing green eyes she only just now noticed. Those piercing emerald orbs looked down on her, looming high above her head and over her shaking body, their piercing gaze the only light in a world of nothing.

>You...

2/3
>>
>>28180340

From the darkness, a single hoof stepped forwards, though it was near impossible to tell it until it fully breached the cloak. Only then, when it stepped into her island in the storm, could she see the ebony hoof fall down, the glistening crystal floor shining up through every of the multitude of holes in her hooves. With that one step, she felt the tremor beneath her own body.

Leisurely the curtain that covered all but her eyes was pulled back, and elongated fangs gave a dull glow in the light, their slightly stained coloration mingling with the mossy light to create the illusion of venom dripping from them. Only when the gap had been closed did the princess at last see the one who had followed her for so long, and the wicked smile on her face.

Only now did she look up, into the manic glinting eyes, of Queen Chrysalis.

>....HIIII CRYSSSSYYYYYYYY!

>>28180348

Oh wait they can just fwoosh away the holes and learn to swim like everyone else.

Why don't they just do that?

Well, yeah. If they can make gills, they can open and close slits on their skin at will, which means they're immune to stabbing.

It's not too complex, it's too broken.

It's ok Spike

I don't know what the blue hell is going on in this arc either

Seriously there was a train crash, abandonment issues, Applebloom got mech'd and de mech'd. Then suddenly Sweetie Belle and Fuckdoll McGee was with Michale "Babs Jackson in Townsville and there was a song number apparently and now this showed up and I think Scootlao hung herself out of loneliness has anyone checked on her?
