Dadonequs thread lets not let it die again fagos

guys did no one bump?

Real thread, ignore the other two.

>>30194997
Goddamn what thread are we going to stay on?

>>30196415
I guess this one?

>>30196419
Are you sure my man?

>>30194997
You sure? I mean, erf, elo and wanda are already on the other thread. But this one is better done, sooo

>>30196741
At this point, I'd bet my ass.

>>30197066
ARE YIU ABSOLUTELY SURE?!

>>30197203
Let's put it this way; a mod has it out on us for some reason, and that thread is ripe for the picking. Aside from this one being well made, this one also has a less reason to be messed with when compared to the other one. I'd rather play it safe and stay here, rather than risking the odds with the other one.

>two threads

>>30197232
>A mod has it out for us
Wut?

>>30197581
Where the fuck have you been for the last few days?

>>30197593
Working, mind to fill me on the details?

ARE WE GETTING FUCKING GREEN TONIGHT?!

>You lead On to your short walk to Princess Celestia and her guests.
>Oh yes, it was time to see how much "progress" she had made.
>Because this was an irresponsible move she made.
"Princess Celestia, how are you doing this day"
>You say politely with a bow, Mr.Rich joining you just out of the sheer respect he has for any of the princesses and his own good mannerisms.
>When you looked up, Celestia was staring at you silently, she didn't look upset, she was actually smiling that off putting smile still.
>Thorax waved to you with a grin on his face.
>One of the dignitaries, all mares, looked upon you with a hard stare "...Mr.Rich, Is this your son? I wasn't aware you had one."
>It seems these mares knew who Mr.Rich was. then again, considering his own status. Perhaps it shouldn't be a surprise.
>"Oh no MrsUppity. This here is the Hero Colt, Anon. We've been spending the day together and I thought I'd treat him to a good lunch. But I'm afraid all the seats are taken at the moment" Mr.Rich said with his usual charming business smile.
>"Ohhh, is he now?" The middle aged Earth pony mare known as Mrs.Uppity stares closely at you and notices your necklace and horn. "Yes, it appears he is indeed the hero colt. Oh my, it is quite the honor to be able to meet this hero that my little filly has been idolizing as of late"
>....christ, so you really were well known.
>But you do the pose, you raise your hoof and give that charming smirk.
"Hehe, the honor is all mine young miss. It makes me feel joy to know I can inspire."
>Mrs.Uppity blushes and giggles as she waves her hoof at you "and a charmer too."
>"Hmph, a rude little upstart if you ask me" The black coated pegasus pony, wearing rather drab clothing, scoffed "Saving an entirely different dimension? How preposterous"

I read Erf's smut green.
Did everyone die in the end?

>>30198054
>"It may sound preposterous Mrs.Meloncholy Black.But I can confirm it's true. Thanks to the support of his friends and his father, anon has indeed become quite the little hero" Celestia was looking at you halfway through this sentence, her glare becoming more serious as if she knew you weren't here for the food.
>"I agree with the princess" A petite unicorn, looking the oldest of the three said, she seemed rather cheery "Here here for the hero!"
>"Here here!" Mrs. Uppity joins in
>The one known as Meloncholy Black just rolls her eyes and let's out a weak "here here"
>Good, that should make it easy to get a seat.
"Thank you ladies, thank you. Say, you all seem to still have your menus. You wouldn't mind letting me and Mr.Rich have a seat, would you?"
>The three seemed to agree, even Thorax was nodding his head. But Celestia...
>"Ahrm, well Anon. as much as we'd like to have you both. We only have one available seat here. one of my guests didn't show and it would be rude to only have one of you here." Celestia...was trying to get rid of you. Interesting.
>You wouldn't leave however. Now that you knew she didn't want you there. You knew something had to be up.
"No no..that's ok..let me just..."
>You notice a couple getting out of their seats after finishing their meal.
"Mr.Rich, you can have that seat. And I'll...get that one!"
>You walk over to the empty seat a couple of tables away.
>woo...whatever it was made of..it was heavy.
>You struggled to drag it back to Celestia's table as it started grinding against the ground with a painful noise.
>Almost immediately, most of the patrons, staff, and even the band stopped to stare at you as you noisily pulled the chair.

>>30198097
you're asking if everyone died in the smut? or the thread?

>>30198114
Died in the smut

>>30198114
Were they tickled to death?

>>30198123
that's an interesting question.
I liked to think of Equestria being turned into a tickle hell.
>>30198110

"Hold..on....almost.....almost.....hold on...hold on...just a little heavy....hold on....hold on.....hold on....ok..ok..there we go! Got it!"
>When you got the seat placed. You hopped onto it with a sweet smile on your face.
>But everyone was just staring silently at you. Mr.Rich even put his hoof to his face and shook it. Celestia was looking away. Thorax looked a wreck, like his sensitive ears popped or something.
>The hell happened in the minute you were gone? Someone tell a bad joke?
>"Well..that was...certainly something" The unicorn chuckled nervously before clearing her throat and looking towards Celestia "In anycase, Princess Celestia, about the potions class professor., We believe some of the potions he teaches the students to brew may be...a tad dangerous."
>"I can assure you Mrs.Luster, Professor Concoction knows exactly what he is doing for the ten years he's been with us. He's never caused an accident, nor allowed one. I assure you your son is safe" Celestia reassured her.
>You could see Mr.Rich looking through the menu and waiting for his turn to speak. Once he had a chance, he looked to you with a smile. "Ahh, here we are. Anon, I'm going to order us the most expensive meals here. If only because their also the best. Can't get you any of the drinks in here though. Adults only n' all"
>You nod with a sweet smile
"That's alright Mr.Rich, Oh...Princess Celestia, can I ask you something?"
>Celestia looked to you and nodded "Yes? what is it Anon?"

>>30198153
"Welllll, I noticed you brought Crystal Hoof with you. What's the occasion?"
>"Oh! Can I answer that Princess Celestia?" Thorax looked to her with a smile
>Celestia gave you a stare of suspicion before going back to a gentle smile "Of course you can Crystal Hoof"
>Thorax seemed pretty excited to say what he had to say "I asked! It was very kind for the princesses to take me in. And well, Princess Celestia always seems to have a tough day the same way Princess Luna always seems to have a tough night. So I wanted to come with Princess Celestia during the day to show my support and later I'll be there for Princess Luna!..it's um...the least I can do. I know it isn't much. But I want to try at least"
>Huh, how curious. Why would he decide to do that all of a sudden?
>You needed more information.
>"What a respectable little fellow. With that kind of dedication, one could mistake him for your son Princess Celestia. I must say, it was very kind of you to take in an orphaned crystal pony. The times with King Sombra must have been dreadful" Mrs.Uppity said as she noticed a waiter finally coming to the table.
>the way Melancholy scoffed as he approached meant they must have been waiting awhile. Or they were just snooty.
>"My my, quite the coincidence. A colt taken in by a princess that well represents harmony, and of course, our hero colt been taken in by the master of chaos. It's like destiny. And considering you know the princess pretty well Anon, I'd wager my right hoof that you and Crystal Hoof must be the best of friends"
>"Well, I'd like to think we're friends. So yes!" Thorax nodded in agreement. "We're friends!"
>.......ugh, the things you had to agree to.
>He wasn't a bad changeling. But fucking dammit. You barely knew him.
"Oh yeah, we're pretty good buddies"
>Celestia gave you another look. knowing you were fibbing pretty bad.

>>30198209
>When the orders were made, discussion went a long as normal. You became more of an observer over anything else as Celestia continued to talk to her guests with some mentions of you and your adventures since the mares seemed interested in your escapades.
>Mr.Rich engaged in some discussion of his own, or more rather a little advertising and swinging his big corporate dick around a little bit. But he was being polite about it. No hint of smug.
>He was also telling you how excited you must be for all the food he ordered for you and him.
>You sort of just nodded to him while eyeing Thorax, who responded in small words when asked a question, but was mostly sitting there with a smile on his face.
>You didn't feel any different from before. But he seemed pretty focused.
>You didn't think he'd feed on purpose, but he still had to feed. But it didn't even seem like he was taking nibbles. or maybe he was too nervous since you were there.
>After some time. Food was finally served. Everyone, including yourself, got some pretty fancy meals. You didn't know what it was. but it looked pretty ok.
>You noticed Thorax was eating like a proper pony should. Huh...
>The fact he was eating it at all was rather odd.
>"Ahrm, Mr.Anon, you know, Since we're all here. Why don't you all tell us how ya managed to save that other Equestria? Ah betcha it'd make a rousing lunch story." Mr.Rich asked. He felt it would be the perfect time to hear it. Also, he just really wanted to hear the whole thing for himself and this would be the perfect time to listen in.
>The mares seemed to agree. They too wanted to hear the tale.
>But you weren't too interested in telling any variation in the story.
"Erm, I dunno Mr.Rich, there is a lot on my plate right now. Not that I don't appreciate your hospitality or anything. but, ya know. I'm just tired and a little too hungry to tell it"

>>30198309
>Mr.Rich's ears drooped a little in disappointment. "Ahh, no no, you're right. Ah understand. Besides, ya have done enough already. Wouldn't be right to ask you for more than that."
>Well, he understood. that's good.
>The mares looked pretty disappointed too, but, what could you do? You had to make sure everything would be alright.
>"....Anon, is there a reason you keep looking at Crystal Hoof like that?" Celestia...she may have caught on as to what you were doing.
"Oh, uh. I was just looking at his food. It looks pretty good too."
>Thorax pushes his plate gently to you "Do you want some? I wouldn't mind trading for some of yours...unless you're really hungry..then you can just take a little, if you want"
>...fuck...You didn't expect him to actually offer some food.
"Oh, umm..sure! I'll..trade you this for that."
>That was the best you could do to make it look convincing, after taking some of his food. You immediately eat it, chew, and swallow....it was pretty damn good.
"mmmm! That was great!"
>"I know, all the food here is very very good. Thank you Princess Celestia, you're really really kind"
>Celestia gave Thorax a gentle smile and gave him a pat on the head "It's no trouble at all little one.Think of it as a reward for all the progress you have made." Celestia then gave you a dark glare "It's more than I can say for some who truly do not wish to understand the magic of friendship"

>>30198387
>Fuck, she wasn't buying it. She must have really figured out what you were up to.
>You tried to focus on your meal the best you could. Trying to act as if you really had nothing more to say.
>"How's the food Mr.Anon. It's some of the best food money can buy. So I can only imagine how satisfied you are" Mr.Rich seemed pleased with himself for at least that. He wanted to make sure everything was to your liking to match what you had done for him.
"O-oh umm..it's ok"
>You say, not really paying attention as you try to act innocent as you focus on feeling like you have less feelings.
>"Oh...well, erm..I sppose "ok" is, alright. As long as ya like it..." Mr.Rich was tapping on the table, looking down at the ground gloomily.
>Dammit. What was going on. You could swear on the damned bible that something was going to happen.
>But nothing was happening.
>And nothing did happen as conversations continues.
>Mr.Rich seemed to be in a less than chipper mood now. Hrn, interesting...Was that Thorax's doing?
"So, Crystal Hoof. buddy, pal. how you feeling right now?"
>"Oh um. The same! Happy to be here. Why?" Thorax asked as he tilted his head, wondering why you asked the question. He did seem like he was having a good time throughout.
>damn, how could you get him to spill the beans without spilling the beans.
>The answer was..you couldn't. not in public.
"Oh, just thought I'd ask. Because if you felt uncomfortable, I just wanted to tell you not to worry about it. Because it's going to be fine"
>"Gee, Thanks Anon. I already feel fine. But I'll keep that in mind just in case!" Thorax says with no hint of falsehood or maliciousness in his voice.
>Damn, you needed to think of something else.

>>30198432
>Or, you couldn't because as soon as you finished your food. And Celestia's hers. She stood up, and made an announcement to the table. "Pardon me, I know it is unlike me to walk off in the middle of lunch. But I promise it will only be for a moment. I just wish to have a word with our brave hero colt. "
>She wanted to speak to you alone?
>Shit, that wasn't part of your plan. You just wanted to scope out everything so it'd be ok. Not actually chat with her one on one during the actual lunch.
>And as you looked to Mr.Rich, Thorax, and the three old mares. You knew this was something you couldn't just refuse without seeming rude.
"Oh, sure! of course! It'll be my honor Princess Celestia!"
>"Then please, follow me outside so we may speak." Celestia lead you back out through the front of the restaurant just outside it's steps.
"Ummm....So uhh...what is it?"
>You noticed her horn starting to glow. She wasn't responding to your question. Which only made your heart sink into more worry.
"P-princess Celestia?...you're not going to zap me with magic..are you?"
>"No Anon, I'm merely casting a listening spell. It will make it appear to other ponies that we are talking about something else. Because what we're going to talk about is your abhorrent behavior and distrust"
>Abhorrent?! The fuck? No no no, you weren't going to take that. You were just making sure nothing was going to go wrong.
"Huh? Woah, that's a pretty heavy accusation Celestia. I didn't do anything "abhorrent". as for the distrust thing? No, not really. I know Thorax is a good guy, but a changeling has got to eat. You don't think it was reckless letting him out into the public like this?"
>Celestia just raised an eyebrow at you "And letting the QUEEN of all ponies out was any better?"
>You nearly faltered at that one, but you pointed your hoof at her with a smirk.
"Aha! But she's cursed to stay in a single form"

>>30198507
>"And yet she can still feast on ponies however she wishes, the ponies I swore to protect, the ponies you are letting being drained through her presence"
>You raise your hoof again, but then you realize. Celestia was right on that one.
"Well...yeah, but. Y'know. She can't really hurt anypony...."
>shit....How the fuck did you walk into that one.
"S-still, me and Chrysalis are getting closer everyday. I mean, yeah. I've accepted the inevitable and all. But I still have to make sure nothing is going to go wrong. That includes on this side too. If Thorax gives in to temptation. Chrysalis can exploit that. And if that happens. You,Discord,Fluttershy, me, Luna, And Twilight. We could all be in pretty dire straits after that"
>"Really?" Celestia didn't seem to be taking you too seriously "Temptation you say? Please elaborate, you have been around changelings much longer than I have. So explain to me what EXACTLY is the problem"
"Well...the problem. As I explained. Is Thorax giving into temptation. I know Chrysalis will be away while he reforms the changelings. But all it'll take is one slip up from him to ruin everything. And should a changeling go back to Chrysalis due to that. She'll manipulate things to go back to the way it was. And she'll also know Thorax is alive and then everything will just blow up all around us. Figuratively of course. Bringing Thorax to a public place could undo everything you and Luna have been trying to do for him. I think it's too early. I mean, look at Scrappy. He loves Applebloom and the others to death and he still feeds. So yeah, my theory holds prettttttty good water I think"

>>30198544
Nice job erf you always manage to bring me a smile

>>30198544
>But Celestia just speaks in a sarcastic tone to you, disrespecting your theory "And I'm sure that's exactly what your reasoning would be if you were fully telling the truth. I do have something to say about Thorax. But let me tell you what I think about that first. And it comes down to a very simple fact. No matter what you tell yourself. You are obsessed with maintaining your friendships and protecting those you care about. Which is admirable. Its through that that you managed to defeat and reform Starlight Glimmer. You would obsess over her welfare and safety until you were sure she would be alright. That same obsession is what drives you to do what you are doing with Queen Chrysalis. The difference is that she is, and still proves to be a monster and a blight to pony kind, and as it seems, even her own children. Your obsession has blinded you Anon. You should be focusing on the friends who truly care about you. And not on her...friends like Filthy Rich"
>Huh, what did she mean by that? Mentioning him directly like that..it was odd. And your obsession? It wasn't that bad! You were just doing for Chrysalis what you did for Starlight. You still hung out with her and all your other friends. But most of all. The thing you found the weirdest was that Chrysalis was harming her own children. Where and how did she get that fucking idea?
"Woah woah, backtrack to the children thing. What do you mean a "blight"? What gives you that idea?"
>"I'll answer that question Anon. But first, I'd like you to answer one of mine. Do you believe that a changeling needs to feed on others love to survive?"
>..what kind..of question..was that?! DUHHHHHH, of course they needed to feast on love. That's their entire shtick.
"Yes, now answer my question please"

>>30198582
>"Hold on, I have one more." Celestia's stare became more focused, more serious, as if this was one of the most important questions she ever asked "You believe they need to feast on love to survive. But tell me Anon, regarding their food source, haven't you noticed anything off about Scrappy? Do you even know anything about Thorax's progress?"
>Thorax's progress? On what..being nice? Because you didn't know what that had to do with their food source. But Scrappy?
"Well, admittingly.Scrappy does eat a lot less than the other changelings. But I don't see what that has to do with anything. For all we know, all that fasting from food can cause them to engorge themselves later. So I don't see the point in bringing it up"
>"Just as I expected. Anon, I sent a letter today that had you just been patient. You would have known that last night. Thorax had finished the odd metamorphosis that was happening to his wings."
"Metawhat now? His wings? What does that have to do with anything?"
>No seriously, why even bring it up?
>"Anon. Thorax hasn't needed to feed since then. He doesn't need to sustain himself on love anymore. His wings, they became beautiful and elegant just as he was learning what love and friendship truly meant. In fact, I think he reached this state because he understands. He only needs to feed on normal food now from time to time as he himself produces the love he needs to survive. Furthermore, perhaps had you waited. You would have seen in that letter that I wanted to talk to you personally about a change in plans."
>....His wings? He doesn't need to feed? And a change in plans?
"W-wait..."
>...no..fucking. Did that mean? You were dead wrong? Thorax doesn't even need to eat love anymore? How, how does that even work! Chrysalis would have surely known about that kind of shit if that's the truth.
>And yet, this was Celestia. She wouldn't lie to you to get the better of you.
>Holy fuck..she was serious.
"..I...er"

>>30198690
>"Hold yourself Anon.." Celestia noticed you were faltering now. She could see that you didn't nor even could have seen something such as that happening. but she had hoped you had at least pondered on it given what you were told before. "I can see now that you are realizing your mistake. But I cannot let you off so easily. I can't. Because I can tell you still don't understand. Simply put, we had tried to accommodate you when it came to Queen Chrysalis. We had given you chances, given you leeway, and even tried to make the end result of this plan benefit you in some way. And yet you still act selfishly. Anon, there are others who care about you deeply. And you ignore them. or cast them aside for your foolish whims." Celestia looks towards the doors, as if she was looking straight at Thorax, with sorrow in her eyes "And it is those whims that have changed Thorax's mind about reforming his siblings. He still wishes to reform them yes. But he also wishes to face his former queen at the same time. Anon, he wants to try to reform her as well just for your benefit. Because truly believes he and you have a friendship that he too wishes to protect. He is loving and kind, Anon. He wishes to better himself and fix the reputation his kind has. And so holds on to friendships very dearly. And yet you? You don't really care about him at all..do you?"
>....oh fuck...
>He was going to try and face Chrysalis as well. For you? He was doing it for you?
>So there really was no issue. And he isn't a threat. In fact, now you knew that perhaps. All the changelings could change their wings and appetite like he did. If Scrappy was any indication anyway.
>The worst part was Celestia was right. You didn't care about him too much. But, it seemed he cared about you.
"I er...ummm.."

>>30198724
>"And then there is Mr.Rich, who seemed to have wanted to treat you to a good meal, a meal which you squandered through your distrust. Had your motive been to simply comply with him. I would not have minded you eating with us at our table. But you cast his feelings aside just to try to prove something to me. Tell me Anon, knowing what you know now. Was it worth it?" Celestia looked back at you like a mother lecturing her son. Something you couldn't fight back against.
>How could you have fucked up that hard? You couldn't counter anything.
"......."
>You hung your head low. You felt god awful.
>Thorax, through his interactions with the princesses, had become something else. From what you could think of. The end result of a reformation. Something that had Chrysalis gone for, she wouldn't need to take over Equestria anymore.
>And yet, she wasn't even close to reaching that state. While Thorax has in such a short time.
>And Scrappy was somewhere inbetween. Which meant all the changelings were capable of it.
>And then there was Mr.Rich. He just wanted to pay you back. He just wanted to make you happy.
>And you just threw it away.
>And now, you understood your obsession.
>Chrysalis was never going to change...
>It was a wasted effort.
>even if the others change, she won't.
>Your quest was doomed from the started.
"...When is it happening?"
>"Within the week Anon. I still need to speak with Discord. Which, should he read the letter I also sent him yesterday. will be soon."
>Within the week...
>....
>Celestia gently put her hoof on your shoulder, making you flinch. and look up at her with sad eyes. You truly understood now. You had to let this happen, for sure. Chrysalis was going to hate you, sure. But really, even if this didn't happen, you couldn't let her take over Equestria. If she came close and you had to stop her. She'd hate you just as much as what's going to happen soon.

>>30198759
>really, there was no future for this friendship. And you felt foolish for it. All your other friends. You were throwing them aside for someone who would eventually hate you.
>"I'm sorry Anon, but now you must understand why it must be this way. A real hero knows what's important. Saving those who are a prisoner to their own lust for food. Stopping one who wishes to cause ruination to all. So much is at stake Anon. A hero knows when to make sacrifices."
>You cringe from the thought. But she was right. There was no other way.
"I know..."
>"Anon. some things simply must be. I know it hurts. But you ignored the risks. And there's nothing anypony can do about the consequences. My advice to you is to focus on the friends who truly care about you. Help them, and let them help you. When Chrysalis is gone. If Thorax cannot reform her. Then you must accept that that will be it. She is a criminal, a monster, caring for nopony but herself. I simply cannot let that go unchecked as she continues to exploit you and Discord to extend her reach.I understand it will be difficult. But you will have the support of your friends to help you through it." Celestia brought you close for a hug. She didn't hate you. But she wanted you to stop your shenanigans. It was unhealthy, and ludicrous.
>Within your depression. You realized more and more how hurt your friends must be seeing you focus on her. Scootaloo suffered trying to help you. Starlight tried to warn you. Thorax wants to give it a go. And you disregarded it all for Chrysalis.
>Mr..Rich...
"Princess, can I go back inside please? I don't want Mr.Rich to feel like what he did isn't appreciated..."
>Celestia nodded.
>And you? Without anyway to validate your own situation. Fully gave in to the truth.

>>30198815
>You'd have to stay away from Chrysalis from now on. Not like she'd really notice anyway.
>You just turned and walked inside with your head held down. Celestia didn't follow at first. She pondered instead. She knew she made the right choice. The needs of the many, in this case, outweighed the need of the few. She just never thought that Chrysalis would be capable of friendship at all.
>Maybe Thorax could do it, she thought. If she cared about you that much. Then she too...should understand sacrifice.
>But Celestia felt a stronger dread that she would not. But she had to ignore that dread. For something like this, she could do it easily. Her subjects, their friends and family, and the well being of Equestria came first. And no matter what, she'd never throw that away. Especially not for a volatile friendship.

Dang that hurts

Also Anon was acting like kind of a shit head. Celestia has an abundance of patience for this guy, I'm surprised she doesn't actually punish him.

>>30198821
Erfanon on suicide watch

Waaait so this is it? Anon's will has finally been broken?

I'd feel pretty defeated after that encounter, but I'm sure Anon will contrive some ridiculous reasoning while trying to work around this

>>30204226
And of course it all goes to shit.
Maybe even Flutters will get pissed

Sweet dreams folks

>>30198821
>You approached the table, summoning up a smile as you take your place on your seat. Celestia coming in just as you sit down.
>"I don't suppose that was all private, correct?" Mrs.Uppity asked
>Celestia nodded as she took her seat "I apologize, but it is. It's nothing to worry about however" Celestia let's out a gentle giggle "in the grand scheme of things, it's just uninteresting business"
>"Indeed..." Mrs. Meloncholy mumbled boredly. She didn't seem too interested if it was uninteresting or tasteful.
"Oh um, Mr.Rich. Let me just say that I apologize for seeming rude. I was just overwhelmed by everything. I thought I could handle it but..."
>You chuckle nervously
"..Well, you can say I feel like I'm being judged by everypony."
>At first Mr.Rich just stared, then he let out a chuckle, a chuckle that signified that all that horrid feeling he was feeling was washing off as everything became "clear" to him. "Well, that ain't too far from the truth Anon. But I knew something had to be wrong with you actin' all off like that. Especially after the day we had. So I'm going to guess you really did enjoy that food right? Because I ordered dessert. No need to thank me, I just got the impression that maybe it'd cheer you up."
>Dammit...
>You didn't mean...
>No, Celestia was right.
>So, you faked enthusiasm the best you could.
"Oh Boy! Dessert! Now you're talkin'! Thanks Mr.Rich! You're the best!"
>Mr.Rich grinned big, he enjoyed your zeal and words. Even if the excitement was false. He didn't know it.
>"So then, I don't suppose you'd be willing to tell your story now. I want to hear what the Hero Colt is actually capable of. Since the Princess assures us it's the truth" It seemed Melancholy really was interested to hear this wacky tale. You didn't think or even consider why she'd be interested. You just agreed to tell it as to not be a party pooper this time. Of course, with a few personal edits.

>>30205093
>Throughout the weight, and throughout dessert. You told your tale with vigor and energy. Leaving out Chrysalis and everything with "Mr.Audit"
>You span your web of action and magic as everyone stared upon you as they slowly ate.
>When you got to the part where you beat up the robot however. You accidentally smashed your hooves into your dessert in excitement to represent your punching. it got cream all over your legs, table,a nd on Princess Celestia's face. Making everyone on the table gasp.
>Celestia merely smiled and licked her tongue along her muzzle and took in the cream and giggled. "My my, sounds like you had a "delicious" victory Anon."
>Celestia speaking at all about it nearly drained all your energy.She was really good at acting like nothing happened. Keeping herself from showing any notion other than pure enjoyment for your story.
"A-and that's pretty much it...erm..I'm sorry Princess Celestia."
>You look down at your battered dessert and poke at it.
"I got a little too into it."
>"You don't need to fret Anon. Considering how perilous your adventure was, it's only natural to get so excited when talking about it. Reminds me when my sister and I faced down King Sombra all that time ago. Of course, everypony knows that tale by now." Celestia said with a gentle grin as she finished her own tasty delicious little cake.
"Oh..Yeah.."
>You slowly began to eat your battered dessert when something came to mind.
"...umm, refresh my memory on that. There wasn't a "Radiant Hope" anywhere, right? Ya know, In facing off with King Sombra?"
>"Who?" Celestia had no idea who you were talking about.
>thank christ.
"Oh erm...nothing."
"Oh and, I'm sorry about the dessert Mr.Rich, it's super tasty thought!"

>>30205174
>"It's no trouble Anon, but I could order you another one." Mr.Rich said with a quiet chuckle. He thought it was cute you were still eating it. It did his heart good to see such innocence in a young colt. Made him feel even better about you marrying his daughter.
"No no, it's fine. I don't think they could whip up anything better than what I have right now. I've never had this before"
>You just start digging in, taking huge bites. It was pretty fantastic
"Mmm! Mmm! Really good!"
>Thorax calmly ate his dessert. He didn't really have too much to say. He just looked to Celestia with a cheery smile. "Princess Celestia, can I ask you a question?"
>Celestia looked to Thorax with a motherly smile "Yes Crystal Hoof?"
>"Do you think, perhaps tomorrow, we can go to the school again so I may read another story to the students? I thought it was fun...erm..and I don't want to seem too much of a bother but they did look happy and-"
>Celestia put a hoof gently on his shoulder and nodded "Of course, I too saw how happy they were to be read a story. Your puppet act really added on to the reading as well. So yes. Just be sure to let either me or my sister know when you;re leaving so we can plan accordingly."
>Thorax nodded "Thank you Princess Celestia."
>Just like that. She trusted him to go do a reading to a bunch of foals.
>Dammit Anon, how badly did you fuck up?
>After lunch was over. You and Mr.Rich said your goodbyes.
>Thorax however, couldn't leave without giving you a hug. He whispered in your ears "Thanks for finding me Anon. You, and Princess Luna, and Scrappy. You're a really good friend. And I promise I'll do my best to repay you"
>You gulped, and just whispered back.
"Y-yeah..erm..your welcome"

>>30205355
>Thorax. He was obviously talking about reforming Chrysalis. He really had no ill will towards you. You wonder if that'd still be the case if he knew what you thought of him before.
>Or maybe..he did. Changeling can sense feelings. He may have already known back at the meeting. But didn't say anything. about it.
>Maybe, when you can speak to him more privately. You should talk to him about that.
>Maybe, you should respect Scrappy a little more.
>A lot more.
>Dammit...
>Trying to keep your thoughts in check. You and Mr.Rich take a train back to Ponyville. Without a charge in your horn, teleporting was impossible. And fuck using the map. If he got even one look at any of the changelings who might or might not be in your room. You'd be done.
>Mr.Rich was once again thankful for what you did for him. He also asked you a few fatherly questions.
>He asked if the food really was that good
>If it caused you to have any stomach aches
>to not tell ANYONE about the adventure
>he went on with a few tales of his own about his business
>And of course, he asked about what you and Celestia talked about.
>You made sure to listen to every word he said and answer accordingly. But you couldn't tell him what you talked to Celestia about. You politely told him that it had to be a secret. Which thankfully he understood.
>The train ride wasn't too long. But it was already late afternoon.
>When you both stepped off the train. You both decided to see Mrs.Muffin Top at her classroom to see when exactly the swap ended.
>When you both arrived. Mrs.Muffin Top was already packing things up and getting ready to go.
>"Oh, hello you two." Mrs.Muffin Top said with a cheerful smile when she saw you two come in.
>"Good evenin' Mrs.Muffin Top. I see you're packin'. Ah can only assume class is over." Mr.Rich said.

>>30205419
>"It is indeed, dont'cha know. Your wife was wondering where you went." Mrs. Muffin Top giggled "She had her maids look all around town looking for the both of you after everypony swapped back. even after I told her that you two were probably out having a father and son experience. Speaking of, did you two go fishing? or something else?"
>"Somethin' like that. Let's just say we caught us two real big whoppers. Anon, he's an amazin' little go getter and the most honest pony ya ever saw." Mr.rich said as he rubbed his hoof gently on your head.
>...dammit.
>Just get through this Anon...
"Yep! And Mr.Rich is super cool too! I finally got to see inside his shop for the first time. It was so cozy I didn't want to leave!"
>Mrs.Muffin Top couldn't help but smile hearing that as she closed up her saddle bags. "And that's what I like to hear. It really does look like I didn't need to come here at all. Everypony passed....well, by varying degrees, but still. Much better than any of my other classes, dont'cha know. You two aren't even related and yet I can tell from looking at your face Mr.Rich that you already see him as your son. I suppose given your daughter's reaction, that it shouldn't be a surprise. But Anon..."
>She noticed something...sad..about you.
>"Is there something wrong? You can tell little old Muffin Top, Don'tcha know." Mrs.Muffin Top, Dammit...you forgot she could see through acts.
>"Anon, is there somethin' wrong son?" Mr.Rich looked to you with worry.
>Shit! Shit! Shit!
>Think of a good lie!
>Dammit! It wouldn't work...unless..there was some truth to it?
"Oh...I..yeah. I guess there's something. I guess I was just worried that somewhere, I made a mistake during this whole thing"
>That was vague enough to work..right?
>"Oh, Ah get it." Mr.Rich was the first to respond. thinking he understood what was going on. Which grabbed Muffin Top's interest.

>>30205505
>Mr.Rich explained the part of meeting Celestia. His version of your explanation was that you probably just felt you may have not seemed worthy enough to be in her and her guests' company. which Mr.Rich then assured you that you did perfectly fine. Something you pretended to be reluctant to agree with to throw Muffin Top off the trail.
>And thankfully. It seemed to work.
>She didn't even seem to be suspicious of Chrysalis. who no doubt, wanting this to be over. Did her thing to fool her with honest dishonesty as well.
>Muffin Top then said her goodbyes. Extremely thankful that she got to experience the breath of fresh air that was Ponyville. Mentioning that she'd probably have a family gathering here one day.
>And with the fact that Spoiled had sent maids to find the both of you. Mr.rich said his goodbyes as well. Realizing he needed to get home or else there may be trouble. He didn't leave without giving you a hug however. And once again thanking you for the "trip". In which you thanked him back for the meal.
>And with no one realizing you were back. You felt it'd probably be good to give Fluttershy a visit. Let her know you were ok and that nothing bad happened.
>You didn't want her to be worried.
>then you had to get back home...and ask if there was a letter.

Morning bump before reading

>>30205549
Cute update. Top comfy

Well it finally laded on Erfanon, eh? He finally realized that his plan was fruitless, that Chrysalis was never going to change her desires of conquering Equestria, a hard realization especially considering the real friendship that Erfanon has with her but something that was necessary. The little colt of chaos needed to realize all of what he had dropped just to help Chrysalis, Thorax and Scrappy genuinely likes him, and he has lots of ponies who also love him.

How will Chrysalis handle the lost and how will Erfabon deal with the depression that he will surely get himself into? Only time will tell, what is certain is that he finally realized how wrong he was and patient Celestia has been with him.

>>30206723

>Next time on Erfanon Z

>>30205549
Whelp hopefully he remains this calm for a while. Overall being around Chrissy will be hard because of emotion sensing and whatnot, maybe Discord can provide some cover

Can I let it die?

>>30206723
I didn't know that the essay anon likes DBZ,

>>30208930
I'm not the biggest fan to be honest, but okay. I just thought that there is lots of questions regarding erfanon's future which isn't looking too bright now.

vum

Now where the fuck is everyone?

>>30210482
Just finished working out and jumping in the shower

Elo what was the name of that cutie cat character from those Sonic comics?

>>30210995
Honey the cat, a fashionista who is a fairly decent fighter too. She is top cute.

>>30211093
Thanks.
So are you excited for Sonic Mania or Sonic Forces? I'm optimistic for both.

>>30211479
Sonic Mania looks amazing and already pre-ordered, I am worried about Sonic Forces though

>>30211551
I'm going they managed to learn two sets of lessons here.
One, all the mistakes from Sonic 4.
Two, just follow the Sonic Generations formula and don't fuck up another 3d Sonic game.
This is probably too much to hope for but 8th times a charm.

>>30211597
Let's hope that they really learn from their past mistakes. Sonic needs to polish the boost formula a lot

>>30205549
sorry folks. once again, another of them 4 hour arguements.


>You walked over to the cottage. Celestia's words still fresh in your head.
"Ok...Chrysalis..Chrysa-lissss...erm. Dammit. I can already see how this is going to go down.Thorax is going to go down there and reform the changelings. Their all dumb as shit, and then...OH FUCK! It's not even just that. I remember, some of them wanted to try to leave with X-captain. How could I have been so blind? Some of them don't even want to be down there anyway. Only reason they stayed was because.....oh geez"
>Chrysalis gave them a ridiculously scary ultimatum. And with the way the excaptain morphed. Well, no other changelings would want to try to rebel unless there was a way to certain freedom.
"Christ. Chrysalis, Really?...ugh, c'mon."
>Part of you wished you didn't realize this. Because it just made Celestia even more right. Chrysalis was a monster if it really did turn out that all of her children could go through the same process as Thorax did. And if Scrappy was indication, that may very well be the case.
>And yet, even if she was a monster. She was still your friend.
>She saved an entire world with you.
>But...only for the sake of escaping it.
>No matter how you tried to get yourself out of it, this inevitability. You just keep realizing how right Celestia really is.
>The only truth is that Chrysalis is your friend
>But so are many others who count on you, love you, and need your protection.
>Like Scoots did...and you failed.
>Unless Thorax could manage it. You really had no choice but to tell Chrysalis off. She was like the friend that ruined everything for everyone else but didn't mean to.
>Except she means to.
>Maybe, if you just avoid her. You'd stop caring, and you wouldn't care when it happens.
>Not the best solution. But it was clear.
>Chrysalis needed to be stopped. Or at least.
>Maybe...if all the changelings change their way. She will too...
>That's some grand delusions you got there Anon.

>>30212309
>in truth you wanted it to still go your way
>But it wouldn't
>You knew it wouldn't
>and it pissed you off.
>As you approached the cottage, you looked at the family statues.
>...You looked at Nymous.
>You walked up to it with growing anger and tears, and slammed your hoof right into it's face.
>you did no damage, so you punched it again
>and again
>and again
>and still it stood.
>you wanted to scream at it
>At her
>It started to rain, you didn't even notice the clouds gather
>And still you stood
"...you stupid bitch. Why? Why do you have to do this? I wanted to save everyone dammit. You know I did! Everyone. I saved Starlight, I saved the world, I mean fuck, without me Scrappy and Thorax probably would have been fucked too....but no, not you. You didn't want it."
>You looked at the statue with angry dark eyes.
"If you were really my friend. In any sense, you would have realized by now that you couldn't be evil if you wanted to maintain it. But nope, noooope. You just keep on going. Every day, until you get what you want."
>you were breathing deeply, whipping your wet mane to the side as lightning struck in the air.
>You stared at it silently as tears began to form in your eyes.
"There's nothing I can do.....This is it. Chrysalis, if you can't reform. Then thats it. You'll have to be my enemy. Because I know, I know how you are. And I can't let you hurt any of my friends either. I could never forgive myself if I let myself be so blind as to let you do as you please."
>You turn away from the statue and walk over to the door as you wipe your eyes and face.
"That's just how it is"

>>30212323
>"It is, isn't it Anon, mah boy"
>That voice...
>you turn around to see Discord, holding an umbrella that had it's upper part upside down.
"...Discord...You...saw all that?"
>"I did, I've also had a chance to read those letters. Both yours and mine. Sorry, couldn't resist peeking."
>You didn't know how to feel about that. You didn't care about him reading your letter since you already knew about it anyway. It was just the moment itself that was awkward.
>"I did, I also heard most of what you did. Kind of hard not to when you left that nifty little gadget in your ear on for me to hear."
>The codec...fuck. You didn't realize it was on. You forgot all about it, you assumed it had vanished.
"So what do you think? Y'know. Do you think she can be reformed?"
>"Probably not. But we'll find out tomorrow, I'm sure it'll be a hoot" Discord says with a shrug
"Yeah....wait..WAIT!"
>Did he just say...
"Tomorrow?! As in, it happens tomorrow?! SHE DIDN'T SAY IT WAS HAPPENING TOMORROW!"
>"Ahh, I suppose that's why there was a separate letters for the both of us" Discord spins his umbrella around and drinks the water that spilled down from it, it looked kind of grimy. "Ahh, refreshing. But yes, my letter tells me it's happening tomorrow. Yours doesn't. But Princess Celestia didn't lie. It is indeed happening within the week...which is tomorrow. My my, it's almost as if she didn't want you to interfere tomorrow by doing it all while you were at school. How sneaky of her."
>But you were silent. You could reason that she tricked you. But what was the trick?
>....no...rather it was.
"....No, I think she doesn't want me to be there when it happens. I think she feels that Chrysalis won't.......fucking...dammit."
>...It's hopeless.

>>30212371
"She doesn't want me to see it happen. When Chrysalis decides to be stubborn...."
>So then....
"Discord, what's going to happen afterwards?"
>"Couldn't tell you. Anon..." Discord walks over to you and holds the umbrella over you as he looks down at you with a worried expression "As much as I hate agreeing with Celestia. It's true, Chryssy hasn't been good for you since she moved in with us. even if she is friends with you, she has been playing you the entire time. Trying to make it where she can stall for time and get what she needs to eventually make her escape. Something, I wouldn't let happen of course, but hey...always a possibility. Really, none of this would be happening at all if you just didn't let her stay"
>.....
>You look up at Discord with an accusing expression
"You're the one who let her stay with us"
>"Now now Anon, let's not point hooves. That's not what's important right now. What is important is the fact that after she is gone. You'll be able to move on with your life. You'll be able to appreciate the friends you have even more than you do now. Which doesn't seem to be a lot by the way. Just saying. And, oohh yes. We could focus on pulling a proper little prank on Twilight as well. I do think she's due for one from the ole Chaos duo..." Discord gives you a slightly motivated chuckle "Don't you think?"
"I guess....So...she's just going to be put in Tartarus, just like that?"
>"Most likely. Can't imagine Celestia missing her chance to sealing away somepony as reviled as she is. And, just to let you know. I'm not going to stop her either. As for the whole "Nymous" Experience. It'll obviously be easy to explain it away as Chrysalis tricking her way into our little family."
"I kind of figured it'd go like that anyway. Also, I don't expect you to save her in anyway. She didn't want to listen to me. So it's her own fault"
>Discord sighed "Ahh, you're trying not to care. I know how that feels"

>>30212421
"I know you do. And, that's how it's going to have to be. Because today? Today I learned what happens when your priorities are all messed up. Mr.Rich didn't deserve what I did back at the restaurant. And I was only lucky that Celestia set me straight enough to fix it without him noticing. Thorax genuinely cares about me despite me thinking he's an idiot. And....And I guess I'm being selfish too. Ugh.."
>Scrappy entered your mind.
"Scrappy would be a lot better off with Applebloom than with Chrysalis. I mean, we didn't even kill Thorax. Sooner or later she would have found that out and...well, your barrier doesn't extend at all outside the house. Right?"
>Discord nods
"Yeah, if she found out. She probably would have made him go on a mission he'd never come back from. I should have thought about that when we let Thorax live in the first place. I guess I didn't really care....and if it had happened. I don't think Applebloom would ever forgive me."
>"Friendship is quite the conundrum, isn't it?" Discord says as he stares up, using his free paw to bring a pipe to his mouth and blow bubbles into the rain.
"Yeah, it kind of put things into perspective as well. I guess, all I can really say. For all of this is. I'll miss the good times we had. And I'd be the first one to accept her when and if she actually wants to change."
>you sigh, and look back at the door to the cottage.
"I...kind of not want to think about it anymore. I heard Mrs.Rich sent out a bunch of maids to look for Mr.Rich. Was Fluttershy worried too?"
>"Not too much. Little Tiara is quite the gem. She explained to our dear dear friend that the reason her mother was upset was more on the fact that she was afraid they, they being you two, would have done something...distasteful"
>Distasteful?
"Like what?"

>>30212559
>Discord shrugs "No idea, but I'm sure that could be turned into a nasty little human joke. Am I right?"
>You chuckle, just a little . Thinking of it as a bit of a lewd context.
"That's pretty wrong. But, a little funny if that somehow was the reason she was freaking out. Due to how extreme it sounds."
>Discord smirks "I suppose. But let's not get into it. You need a little cheering up my friend. So let's go inside, greet Fluttershy, and bask in her ever goodness. The time for badness will come later"
>You sigh...trying to empty your feelings as much as possible.
"Alright...Let's go"

Damn, wow, happening soo soon. Good luck Anon

Goood morning!

>>30212566
And the story regained my interest! Finally, something of consequence is happening

Also nice trick by Celestia to say within a week and pull it off the next day. I wonder how this night is going down for Anon and if he'll have any interaction with Chrissy.

>>30213262
It was a real intelligent move by her, and I'm sure that Anon won't have any nightmares when he goes to sleep, no siree

>>30213452
Speaking of which, maybe Luna could make an appearance to help him out

>>30211597
Sorry for the short (and kind of cunty) answer. Sonic Forces looks like a mish mash, on one hand, I do like the boost gameplay, it still looks fast fluid and nice to look at, but it does need some refinements in how is handled.

The 2D parts with Classic Sonic do have a common mistake that has been done with this type of gameplay ever since Sonic 4: too many boost pads. Also, the OC parts might be good or bad, it all depends how is handled

8th time may be the charm but does sonic have charm anymore at this point

>>30215189
Well, Unleashed, Colors and Generations were entertaining at least

>>30215189
Look it this way, it can't be worse than 06, Boom and Lost World.

>>30215189
Sonic Mania will be Sanic's saving grace

>>30212566
Seems like this is it for erfanon's friendship with Chrysalis and my thoughts about dropping the story

>>30216781
Boo.
How do you know how all of this will unfold? Twists are bound to happen

>>30216796
There was too much boring filler

>>30217221
nigga, the whole story is filler

>>30217246
Lol

>>30217221
This I am hyoed because something exciting is finally happening

>>30212566
>Discord took you inside as he tossed the umbrella into the rain. He put on a big smile as he presented you to the waiting yellow horse "Ohhhhh Fluttershy~!" He says in a merry sing songy way. "Look who just arrrived."
>"Anon!" Fluttershy walked over to you with a happy smile..until she noticed how soaked you were. You hadn't even noticed you were wet from before Discord had put the umbrella over you. Sheesh, least he could have done was dried you off.
>"Anon, you wait there, alright? Ohhh, poor thing. You must be so cold" Fluttershy went upstairs to grab a towel and a blanket.
>You raised your hoof and gave it a shake as water started to ring out from left to right. Looking down, there was already a puddle.
>Fluttershy came back down and wrapped you in the towel and began to gently rub it into your sides, onto your back, and massage the towel on your head and mane to get you dried. It admittingly felt great. Especially since, you felt so loved by her. Considering where you were at emotionally. You needed this.
>"Anon, what ever were you doing out in the rain?" Fluttershy asked as she finishes up and begins to bundle you up in the blanket.
"I thought you'd be worried that I was gone for so long, so I hurried here after getting back to Ponyville."
>"Back to Ponyville?" Fluttershy was confused, then looked towards Discord "Oh Discord, you were right. So um..Anon, how was your trip?"
>she didn't seem to worried you were gone.
"You weren't worried or anything, Aunt Fluttershy?"
>"A little. But your father said you were alright and that you most likely were out with Mr.Rich on a special trip. That's what it was, wasn't it? whatever did you both do?" Fluttershy asked.
>You shrugged
"Oh, you know. He took out on a dinner trip. Or...Lunch trip. A food trip"
>you chuckle nervously
"Me and Mr.Rich are pretty close. Especially since...well..y'know"

>>30217870
>"Oh yes" Fluttershy giggled "I know. You and Diamond Tiara are such a cute couple. She loves you oh so so much. Why, I already think of her as my niece. She's told me so many things too. Like how you just melt like butter when she kisses you"
>What?! if anything. Diamond is the one who melts!
"I mean, that really should be the other way around."
>"Oh really?" Fluttershy gives you a gentle boop on the nose "or are you just being a little shy colt? I bet your sister would be able to tell me if it's true or not and..actually." Fluttershy looked up at Discord "Discord, why don't you bring Nymous here? We can enjoy the sound of the rain together and have some dinner."
>"HRN?! Oh...errrr" Discord takes a step back as he looks to the right, looking away from Fluttershy's eyes in a dishonest fashion "Well, you see, I would do that. But Nymous had such a tiring day it seemed that she went to bed early"
>"But, it's not even really night time yet...." Fluttershy was again confused.
>You gulped, and gave Discord some support
"Yeah but...woo!"
>You stretched and yawn
"Considering this was gonna be graded and all. We both sort of stressed out that we might fail, and then who knows what would have happened"
>"Oh...I suppose that makes sense. Are you tired, Anon?" Fluttershy asked
>....well, it was more like you wanted to get tomorrow over with.
>But, you didn't want to worry Fluttershy either.
"I'm a little tired. But I don't mind cuddling with the best aunt ever!"
>You scurried up to her, she sat down and held you close as she cuddled your blanketed form "Oh Anon, I hope you never grow up"
>You didn't mind growing up however. As long as you could still get cuddle times.

>>30217909
>You and Discord, knowing what was to come. Spent the next few hours in Fluttershy's cottage. There were cuddles and snuggles. Fluttershy wanted to get a little in depth about your relationship with Diamond. Which you kept simple. She asked your future plans. Which you made sure to keep cute. And she asked what activities you and Mr.Rich partook in, which you kept as truthful but vague as possible.
>After Dinner, With a hug and kiss to Fluttershy. Discord took you home and plopped you on your bed as he tapped his talons on your nightstand.
>"Hrn, tomorrow is going to be interesting Anon. So, are you prepared to deal with the results of tomorrow's festivities?" Discord asks as he turns to face you with a dark glare.
"No, but whatever. Right? everyone else wanted this and Chrysalis wouldn't listen. So who cares..."
>You just wanted to stop caring. It didn't matter anymore.
>Discord chuckled and wormed his way onto your bed and wrapped around you once and began to pat your head. "Oh my dear not son, son. You keep trying to deny it, but you do care. And as much as I'd like to tell you it'd be ok." Discord poofed to the end of the room as his mouth span from a smile to a frown. "We have to let nature run it's course. Besides, you're right. Everypony does want this. She's committed atrocities and destroyed entire civilizations without any remorse."
>You'd comment on how he also did that. But he could easily retort that he at least listened to Fluttershy and reformed.
"I know. I get it. I just wish she'd listen. I just wish she'd stop being stubborn. If I had just...I dunno. Something, anything. I mean, Yes. I obsessed over it. But I was so close! I was so damn close, Discord. But she kept finding a way to deny my reasoning. Which is stupid! she has nothing to gain by staying evil."

>>30218002
>"Maybe so, and excuse me if this makes total sense. But you have EVERYTHING to lose by still obsessing over it. Anon, I miss our time together. I'm sure Twilight Two would be happier to know you cut the bug queen out of your diet. And let's not forget Fluttershy, Diamond Tiara......everypony else...Me again"
>You sigh, thats what everyone goes on about. That's what Celestia says.
>But you can handle it. This is your last day after all. You were allowed to obsess one more day. You were over it.
"Discord, look. tomorrow, it's not even going to matter. Ok? Do you know how it feels not being able to save a friend who obviously doesn't want to be saved. But understands you and even acts in such a way that you can be natural around them without there being too much of an issue?"
>"Anon, call me crazy but I think I understand you pretty well. And then there's the fact that Diet Twilight Zero also knows your secret and seems pretty ok with it. All chryssy wants it to conquer Equestria. Which would mean Fluttershy gets hurt. Which would mean we'd have a new doorstop. So to speak. Why do you care THIS much? She's abused you, made a fool of you, she's taken advantage of you. All admirable traits except for the fact that she's doing it in a way that would ruin MY fun. So tell me Anon. What's your secret to your stubbornness"
>.....
"Because she's almost like a human in a sense. Ponies are ok. You're ok. But who else am I going to talk to about movies from my world? Who else is going to have a chat with me on my level, curse words and all. Who else is going to not be stupid moralistic about things. I mean there's you. But, you're so random that there's no point. It's not fulfilling. With her it is. I don't want to lose that."

>>30218040
>Discord..he seemed pretty hurt by those words. "So that's how it is then? I'm not good enough to enjoy your "Human" things and your cynical views of ideas and events? Anon, I really thought Celestia got through to you. But obviously you care more about somepony who would destroy us all should she have the chance over those who care about you. And F.Y.I Anon, I care about you."
>Wait..that's not how you meant it.
"Discord, Come on. Don't be like that, It's just a different dynami-"
>But he disappeared with a violent expression. A burnt mark left on the ground from his firey teleport.
>...GODDAMMIT!
"FUCK YOU DISCORD! YOU KNOW THAT'S NOT WHAT I....FUCK!"
>You throw your pillow at the burnt mark in rage
"GET BACK HERE YOU FUCK!...YOU!...you..."
>You groan and wrap yourself in your blankets.
"whatever. Fuck this shit....."
>You turn to your side, anger flickering in your eyes.
"That's exactly what I meant. Everyone gets so upset over every little thing. It's fucking retarded. Always blaming me. Always criticizing what I'm doing."
>You closed your eyes and tried to sleep
>But, you couldn't.
>Because somehow, you hurt his feelings.
>You hurt Discord, of all fucking people, feelings.
"...guh, I better go apologize...I guess."
>You got up and went to the floor door. Except when you got there...
"....uhhh, really? He took away the door?"
>You gently tapped the ground a bit, but it wouldn't budge. it was just a normal floor.
"What a baby..."

>>30218140
>You turned around to head back to bed, when you noticed another oddity.
>The portal door was slightly ajar.
>You walk over to it, as a hideous thought entered your head.
>Was Chrysalis eavesdropping?
"..goddammit. Please don't tell me she heard."
>If she did. Then, what could she do? What would she do?
>You didn't even have a charge to use to stop her should she do....something.
>Or maybe, maybe you just had left it open yourself.
>Don't panic Anon. If she was inside, You would have noticed. Discord would have fucking noticed.
"Yeah, I just have to be more careful."
>You begin to close the door. But stop when you notice the light coming from the other side seems to be a reddish color.
"That's weird..."
>You look at the dial. It was set to Ponyville.
>And it wasn't sunset, that had already passed.
>So you slowly open the door instead.
>and what you see beyond the door is...
"...What..in the fuck?!"
>Ponyville was on fire.
"No..No no no...That's not right. It can't be!"
>You slam the door closed and take a breath, and slowly open it again.
>Still on fire, and you could see ponies running and screaming. some on fire themselves.
>There's no fucking way. No one was that violent....
>Nobody except a changeling queen with knowledge of human cruelty.
>But even then, how did she do it so fast and...
>Wait...if ponies are...WAIT
>YOUR FRIENDS!
"FUCK! FUCK FUCK FUCK!"
>You run through the door and take a look around.
>and what you see is more horrifying than you thought.
>,,,And it wasn't Chrysalis...
>The town was in flames, ponies either being hunted by ever smiling ponies, while others being put in cages.
>Smiling ponies marching down the main streets holding up banners of an equal sign.
>An equal sign?
>...no fucking way.
"No...no no no."
>"There's another one..He has a cutie mark" You hear one of the smiling ponies say in a drab way
>all of them, they were attacking with deadpan emotion. But with deadly ruthlessness.

>>30218192
>and they have spotted you. You didn't have time to think. You ran as fast as you could away from them and dove into a random building.
>Like any cartoon character giving chase, they seemed to have lost you when you ran inside. You looked out the window as they began to split up and look around.
>Between another marching set of troops. You see Starlight Glimmer behind them. An evil smirk curled on her face as she began to look at the cages full of ponies and rip their cutie marks right from them."Don't worry everypony, what is happening now is just a unfortunate circumstance of progress and peace. You all will thank me for it later"
>You duck your head down. And find a shelf to hide behind as you try to make sense as to what the fuck is going on.
"..Holy fuck. Starlight turned evil. But wait? why would she turn evil all of a sudden? Where did she get a cult so fast? Why..why is suddenly?"
>.......Luna....wow, the cunt just couldn't leave you alone.
"....Really Luna? Seriously? A dream with ponies burning alive? Being hunted? and an evil Glimmer? Wow.."
>You start to clap sarcastically
"Real winner this time. what exactly am I supposed to-WOAH!"
>You hop backwards as the very pony you were calling out gets sent through the wall of the building. Landing conveniently right beside you.
>No way.
>Luna began to slowly stand. Despite being sent through a wall. She only seemed mildly hurt as she brushed some wood off her right wing. Limping just a bit "I can't believe this nightmare is giving me this much trouble."
"Luna?...Is that you?"
>"Anon? Anon..there you are!" Luna sighed in relief, as if she wasn't controlling this manufactured nightmare.
>She was controlling it right? You felt lucid enough.
"Yeah, here I am...uhhh...you mind telling me what's up with this dream? Did you try to set up some horrible nightmare and mess up so bad that it's kicking your butt? Are you even alright?"

>>30218224
>"A light injury to my wing. But it will be instantly healed upon leaving the dream world." Luna looked back at her right wing, some of the feathers were off and the wing itself seemed a little marred. But it wasn't anything serious.
"Ok, now what about my other question?"
>You point to the window
"Because I don't see how making Starlight evil is supposed to teach me diddly. And what's with the ridiculous violence? There's ponies screaming and dying out there. It's horrible...."
>"Anon...I have nothing to do with this. This nightmare is one of your doing. I've been trying to defeat this ghastly illusion since I first entered it. But this dreamscape. I don't understand how anypony could dream up such horrid visions. The apparitions here are much more powerful than in any typical nightmare."
>Wut?
"...Are you saying I made this whole place up?"
>Luna nodded "Indeed, from my guess. It seems to have been built upon your guilt and stubborn rage. Anon, what has been going on in your thoughts to generate such a terrible place? I've been in many a nightmare. Even my own. and this place is much more terrifying than anything I've seen put together."
"How am I supposed to know?! I just blinked and BAM! I'm asleep apparently. Look, whatever is going on. Just, y'know, wake me up! Because I don't want to be lucid for this. It's terrible!"
>"I cannot"
>..no..what?!
"What do you mean "I cannot". Just, shake me or something. Zap me with magic, SOMETHING!"
>"This is a strong nightmare bathed in a chaos beyond my control. For me to be able to defeat it, you must come to understand what is causing it. But fear not, it is my duty as the princess of the night to protect her subjects from the dreams that would do them harm.In other words Anon. I shall be your protector until we can defeat this nightmare together."
>But...you didn't know what to do.
>Or what was even causing this. So how could you understand it?

>>30218299
These aren't your nornal nightmares, these are advanced nightmares

Damn Erf. Back at it again with the awesome story.

Dear Erf,

Cinnamon buns?! YOU SICK FUCK!

Sincerely, seriously what the fuck is wrong with you please seek help.

I made my own frosting a few times reading that. Didn't know tickle fetish got me hot, or maybe it was just those damn sexy ponies.

Well, tickling. at least to me. is pretty hot. Who doesn't want to tie down their waifu and play with their tummies and sexy bits while being rewarded with the melody of giggling and laughter. their body betraying them to simple touches. imagine winking technicolor pony vag going wild from lack of control due to uncontrolled giggles. it's hot.

good god no. children are annoying as shit. hell, earlier CMC eps are unwatchable because of how annoying they are. I try to avoid children as best i can. especially the ones outside my workplace asking for donations for their little leagues or whatever. I need my quarterd

Miniupdate and chapter end:

>You can tell something happened with Bonbon. Now you are alone with the mint pony on the street way to the SMILE HQ and you take advantage to talk with your partner.
"So Lyra, what happened with Bonbon?"
>"What do you mean?"
"Come on... I know I'm intelligent, cute, sympathetic and such, but why she's being so... motherly, to say the least."
>She sighs and take a minute to answer you "She feels like it's her fault that you are involved with the mission."
"Her fault? What you mean by that?"
>"Do you have an idea about why are you here?"
"Mmmm... It has something to do with changelings?"
>She nods calmly "She tried long time ago to figure out what's up with their hive with... bad results. She feels like you are paying for her failing. That's why she insisted SMILE allowed you to live with us."
>That makes you feel a bit guilty. You are enjoying this new world while your aunt-- caretaker-- is sad and feels like she ruined your life.
"It's that? I could be more satisfied with the result. If I wasn't by this series of bizarre events I would be just a boring and lame overpaid secretary in the La Matanza's Municipality"
>"Were you some kind of politician?"
"Close, a friend of mine whom I met while I was assisting urban planning made some connections with local government to accommodate me for some months. But that doesn't matter anymore because now I'm a winged kid horse in a strange and magic world. It couldn't be better for me."
>To impose a determined look, you search something to stand over. You find a bench and you stand on it with pride written firmly across your face.
"I make a vow to make her proud and complete the mission in honor of her name"
>Lyra looks at you with deep sensual satisfaction punctuated by a lewd toss of her mane AS you get off on the bench, totally forgetting your sense of decency in the moment of ribald passions for wooden slats.

>>30222296

>Both of you take to your walk again as you move toward the SMILE agency mailbox
>Lyra rests her hoof at the front of the discrete mailbox and with nobody in sight, a light

Well that's something

>>30221899
Yeah actually I just read this and no.
Surprisingly Rainbow Dash was the best even though she's pretty low on my pone list. Having her lose her stuff like that was amazing. I just... nevermind.

There's nothing about children about that. It's totally different. No foals. Jeez. Like, my God no.

Still haven't read last nights update. Sounds crazy. Bit it sounds like maybe an arc in itself.

ARE WE GETTING GREEN TONIGHT?!

>>30218299
"But what's causing the nightmare? I mean, Starlight is outside with some kind of army just maiming ponies and capturing others. What could that mean? I don't think I was afraid of her going back to her old ways after awhile. And..."
>You stopped yourself from mentioning your eavesdropping.
"No no...I'm sure that something about this dream version that should make sense"
>"Hrn, You're ability to perceive dreams as they are is impressive Anon. Nopony is usually able to see it as mere figments."
"Yeah, I'm good at that. So, since I understand they are all figments. And this is an illusion. And all that. That should make it all go away, right? This isn't some sort of Freddy Krueger type thing, is it?"
>Luna frowned as she slowly tapped at the ground with her right foreleg "Well Anon, I have no idea what a "Krueger" is. But unfortunately, this kind of nightmare has created a form of tantabus within your mind. There's no waking up unless you allow yourself to be engulfed in it's darkness. Or are able to clear it at it's source."
>....Tantabus?...like...wait. You remembered that episode.
"Woah woah woah! Hold on. One, why is this situation suddenly even worse. And two, how can I make a tantabus whatever? I thought you were the only one who could do that."
>"To answer your first question. I had time to rest in this spot, and can feel a strange overwhelming darkness from within this dream. And two, I thought I was. The Tantabus can only be created through magic and emotions. Emotions of fear,doubt,hate, self-loathing, rage, sorrow, and hopelessness. These must be feelings you must have been feeling, including the overwhelming feeling of something you couldn't escape from. As for the magic, I do not know where it came from. Perhaps it's from the chaotic traces of magic from your chaotic horn." Luna seemed to be more troubled as she spoke more and more about it.

>>30224211
>You think you realized why. And whatever you did, whatever caused this. It could never compare to how bad she must have felt from being Nightmare Moon.
"Lun-..Princess Luna. I..uhmm.."
>you didn't know what to say to her. You didn't know why you were having this dream. But Starlight had to be the key for some reason. You just had to find a way to approach her.
>"Anon?" Luna looks down at you, curious as to what you have to say.
"Nothing. But I think the answer is in Starlight. We just have to figure out how to approach her. Can you fight off any of those dream nightmare...whatever..ponies?"
>"I can, but as your tantabus grows more powerful. So do the illusions. Do you have any idea where it may be?"
"I do...Come on."
>You sneak around to the house's entrance and look outside.
>It was a painful sight. You could see ponies being dragged from their homes.
>But was even more curious.was when you looked up...
"Oh god...Changelings too? Great...this just keeps getting better. Why are they here?"
>"I do not know, but what is the plan Anon? Do you know which one of these apparitions may be the Tantabus?"
>You look over to the far end of the street, watching Starlight rip more cutie marks from the ponies. Who were running from their homes after they were set on fire.
"She has to be it. I don't know why. But it's gotta be her."
>"I understand. We are going to sneak up on her. Then allow me to give you some advice. Should one apparition find us. They all will know."
>....fuck
"Ok...good to know. We only need to beat the crud out of that Starlight anyway and we should be good."
>You look up again, and you could see Lyra being torn away from BonBon in the distance.
>You had to remember...it was a dream
>It was a dream

>>30224320
>You and Luna start sneaking about, building through building, through windows and doors. Trying to be as stealthy as possible.
"So...Are you sure there's nothing else you can tell me about what's going on?"
>You whisper
>"No, other than the fact that the dreams of a human are more malevolent than I had previously thought. I've never seen such horrifying imagery taken form as the land I love so much"
"Yeah..well...Don't go poking around in my head then when I'm having thoughts about a guy named Satan"
>"Satan?"
"Don't ask"
>You moved in from the backdoor of another building to find yourself in a ransacked and abandoned store.
>A familiar store you had visited for the first time just recently.
>You were so close to Starlight, but...something felt chilling about being inside Barnyard Bargains.
"....I have a bad feeling about this.."
>Luna had lowered herself to hide from view, poking her head up to look out the window. "Do not fret Anon, I think I could blast away a few of the Tantabus's guards. But it will be up to you to face it down."
"Yeah..."
>You say, looking around, something felt off.
"Maybe I could use something as a weapon?"
>You look around, looking through the shelves and such until you reach a separated aisle. When you look around the other end.
>You feel an intense rush of fright and utter shock upon turning the corner.
>It's just a dream
>It's just a dream
>It's just a dream
>You started to tear up
>It's...just...a....
>There before you. Was Spoiled and Filthy Rich, embracing eachother in death guarding Diamond. who had fallen behind them.
"It's....just....ngh"
>What fresh hell was this?
>Why?! how could you imagine something like this?
>You didn't..you forgot.
>You didn't feel like it was a dream anymore.
>You failed
>You failed to protect them.
>You were frozen, just staring as tears ran down your eyes.
>You were so used to everything being so child friendly. That this, you couldn't take it.

>>30224385
>"Anon!..."
>Luna grabbed you and turned you away, hugging you gently as you weeped into her chest.
"L-Luna...I..."
>"Shhh, Anon...it's merely a nightmare. Shhh..."
>She was comforting you the best she could. Bit upon viewing such a sight herself. She couldn't believe the atrocities that existed within your own mind.
>But she could see it was tormenting you like no other.
"I let them...I let them.."
>"Anon, do not lose yourself. It's what it wants. Whatever the Tantabus wants, it is trying to get you to give up. You mustn't let it win!"
"I...I..."
>"Well Well, Looks like the little coward has shown himself"
>...oh shit...
>You look up, crying as Luna drops a barrier around the both of you.
>starlight was standing there, a grim expression on her face as she was surrounded by her guards.
"Starlight....Starlight..why would you do this?"
>"Why would you? I warned you Anon..I warned you about her. But you let her have her way. She destroyed nearly everything."
>W-what?
>"Stay back you cur!" Luna growled at her "We know you are the Tantabus! Give up now! Or face my wrath!"
>"I have no idea what you're talking about "You're Highness". But I can already see you're as guilty as he is. You and your sister. Everypony..That's why I'm forming my own army. No matter what, it's her or us!"
>....Wait
>...Starlight..this was Starlight after her reformation.
>If this was her afterwards....
>The changelings in the sky.
>An army...
>Oh god..you made a mistake.
"Starlight...you mean Chrysalis. You mean, Chrysalis escaped?"
>Starlight scoffed "You mean Chrysalis decimated nearly everything. All because of you! Anon, give yourself up. Or else! Face your crimes after we stop her. Or face them now. It doesn't really matter."
"Starlight...I'm..I'm so-"
>"Sorry? hmph..you should have thought of that before . It's too late now! Alright everypony. prepare to converge!"
>..She wasn't the Tantabus.
>Chrysalis was...
>And you had a feeling on where she might be..

>>30224425
>You wiped your tears, but you still couldn't focus.
>Diamond looked so real.
>Starlight looks so real.
"Starlight..I should have listened. But she was still my friend. What did you want from me?"
>"What do you think?! ANON! HOW COULD YOU ASK THAT EVEN NOW!...I told you to be careful. I thought you wouldn't let her get the better of you." Starlight looked down, she frowned, feeling hurt you'd ask that question. "If you could reform her. Then, I suppose it would have been alright. But she was never close to it, and you lost sight of it...you let everypony down..."
>She growled at you in anger
>"YOU LET ME DOWN! AND I CAN NEVER FORGIVE YOU!"
>You cringed in pain. Your chest was hurting.
>Part of you felt that maybe you deserved this.
>You started to back down again.
>What if in the real world, this was already happening?
>"Anon..as I also admit to you having handled the situation extremely poorly. It has not all been for naught. If what Thorax believes in is true. Then Queen Chrysalis's hive have been suffering in ignorance due to her lust for power. And we would have never known that much without your persistence to try to reform her. But the time has passed for you carry on that burden anymore. This future you created for yourself does not have to come to be. You need not lose yourself in this." Luna said, hugging you close as she continued to hold up the barrier.
>"Utter nonsense. Everypony! Destroy that barrier!" Starlight called out
>The ponies gathered around Starlight began to smash and pound at Luna's barrier. Luna doing her best to hold it up against the horde..
"Luna...Just forget about me. I deserve this."

>>30224460
>"Anon, don't say such things! If you let yourself fall you'll never be the same.You'll never recover from this. Your mind will be so far gone that nopony would even have a hope of bringing it back. This doesn't need to be the end. Despite the bad actions you have made, you have also made good ones. Remember that Anon, you have friends and family who care about you. Would you be so selfish as to let them suffer?" Luna called out to you as she struggled to hold up the barrier.
>Would it matter?
>Diamond could do better than you
>Discord? He had Fluttershy
>Fluttershy? She had her friends
>BonBon and Lyra? They had each other
>Starlight...she was doing alright now.
>Scrappy would be ok with Applebloom
>The CMC would get on with their lives.
>Chrysalis...
>Oh god...
>You really couldn't let he go..could you?
>You were trying so hard that you put her above everyone else. And even after realizing it. You ALWAYS rationalized yet another set of thoughts to put her back on top.
>And..for what?
>No matter how things ended. You'd have to go against her.
>You knew this, you realized this.
>But you failed to truly understand the consequences of letting her have what she wants.
>What if you couldn't do anything.
>What if this really was the end result?
>Why couldn't you stop yourself from entering the same circle of thinking!
"Luna...Princess Luna. C-can I ask you a question?"
>Luna grunted as she did her best to hold her barrier up. But it was starting to crack. "Anon..I don't think now is the best time!"
"Please! It'll help me..please..."
>"Ngh..Very well! But what is it Anon?!"
"...you've been inside all my friends and families dreams. So you'd know best better than anypony else. How much do they care about me?"
>Luna went silent for a moment, as if she was putting some of her focus aside to think on those words
>Then, she answered

>>30224502
>"Anon, your friends and family love you more than you know. Young Diamond Tiara dreams of you every night. Fluttershy adores you, she acknowledges your flaws and does not fault you for it. Even Discord thinks of you fondly often. Before I came into your nightmare, he was having a nightmare of his own. He feared of losing you. That you were no longer his "Chaos buddy" "
>......Discord
>....
".....Starlight isn't the Tantabus. I think Chrysalis is. We need to get out of here"
>"But to where Anon?" Luna asked, her barrier nearly shattered
>Where else, but a place where she could rule. It wouldn't make sense in the real world. But in the dreamscape. she'd be nearby at a place of power.
"Twilight's Castle, can you get us there?"
>"...Are you prepared to face what lies ahead?"
"I don't know, but if we hang around here. We'll be done"
>"Good enough"
>Luna used a good portion of her power to blow up her own barrier, causing it to smash into the attacking force and blow them out of the shop.
>You and Luna then used that chance to escape as you both rushed over to the castle.
>The Changelings above began attacking by lobbing green blasts of magic down.
>But you and Luna ignored it. As long as you focused.
>As you approached the castle. You did have one fear though.
>..no never mind, the doors..even in a nightmare. Were unlocked.
>You both smash through them and then close them . Luna using her magic to seal it in a barrier. "I do not know how long this will hold. But what makes you think the Tantabus is in here?"
>You looked down the hallway that would lead to the cutie map room. But the hallway itself was twisted, broken, the walls were torn away to reveal black space.

>>30224543
"...Just a hunch. "
>"Anon...so you are going to face the Tantabus?" Luna asked you
"Yeah...and let me guess. I have to do it alone from here, right?"
>"unfortunately yes. Should the apparitions interfere. We would be overwhelmed and outnumbered. That is why I shall do my best here"
"Thank you Princess Luna. And thank you for coming to save me. I don't think I could have gotten this far without you"
>"We care about you Anon, as we do all who follow the path of good and harmony. I wish you good luck."
"Thank you..."
>You turned around, and walked towards the door.
>When you opened it, you expected to see the hive on the other side. And Chrysalis on the other side with a little throne beside her.
>But instead, it was a hall of mirrors.
"...The hell?"
>Was she on the other side?
>You started to walk into the blackened hall. Yet despite the darkness, you could see each reflection of yourself in the mirror.
>you made sure to keep your eyes peeled. For all you knew, one of those reflections could have been a changeling. You could have been attacked at any time.
"What's with the mirrors? This is....what?"
>You noticed as you walked further. The reflections stopped moving along with you. Only staring at you as you pass by.
>It gave off an unsettling aura.
".....ok...T-that's creepy..."
>As you continued to look at the ever staring reflections of yourself. You smash headfirst into some sort of wall ahead of you.
"N-Ngh!..a-are you serious?! even in a dream I'll.....woah"
>Ahead of you, was a grand mirror with black edges around it. A horrible black mist coming out from the sides.
>When you stare directly into it. You see a dark and shadowy version of yourself staring right back.
>...oh fucking hell...
"...Are you serious...You're the Tantabus? Me?"

>>30224598
>The dark version of you steps through the mirror with an evil grin. "That's right. Well, close to it. You created me because you couldn't get your shit together. Me? I already know what I want. Ponies are stupid, and deserve to be crushed under my hoof. And you? Just give up and let me have your body. You'll still exist, sort of. And you'll learn a thing or two about putting your hoof down and getting shit done."
>Who the fuck did this thing think it was?!
"Grrr! You listen here you little shit! This is my mind, my body, my rules! What the fuck do you even represent anyway?"
>"Well, isn't that what you're trying to figure out? You probably never ever will. So..."
>The Tantabus grabs it's horn and places it on it's head. "Time for somepony with some ambition to take over."
"Two can play at this game!"
>You go to grab your horn....but it wasn't there.
>The Tantabus starts laughing at you "HAHAHAHAHA! Did you really think I'd let you have that kind of power? I control EVERYTHING in this nightmarescape." The Tantabus rears back his head and blasts you with a strong blast of magic Throwing you back into the ever expanse of darkness. The hallways itself had become a large empty space after encountering the grand mirror.
"Gyagh!"
>You bounce back, sliding off the top of your head before falling onto your stomach.
>"Give it up Anon, this isn't an anime. This isn't a cartoon. If anything, this is your wake. For your conscious anyway." The Tantabus scoffed
>But you got up. you coughed a little from the initial hit, but you felt you could still stand.
"Fuck off, you piece of shit! This is my body, and you're going-"
>But you're stopped again as you take another blast.
>"Good god, you talk a lot. Y'know that? Look, you can't beat me because you can't figure out what created me. You're fucked. So give up now or I'm just going to torture you for the rest of the night. How about that?"
>But you couldn't. Luna's words ran through your mind as you stood up once again.

>>30224690
>Your friends cared more about you than you realized.
>You were so far up your own ass that you didn't realize or care about what they truly thought.
>But even after the way you acted, the ones who were in the know about Chrysalis still cared.
>Discord was scared of losing you.
>This Tantabus. You figured out what he was.
>There was only really one thing he could be.
>He was your indecision. Your inability to compromise.
>Your lack of will to just tell Chrysalis that it's the good way or the highway.
"So...let me ask you something. How do you feel about Chrysalis?"
>"Oh, that's a cute question. Well, I guess you deserve to know before I blast you into next week. I'm just going to take her offer. Because really? Ponies are shit. Who cares about their shitty problems when I can be knee deep in pony pussy." the Tantabus snickered.
"That's what I thought. You're just the weakness in my heart. You're the very thing that has prevented me from doing what was right the entire time. Or really, it was me fooling myself to try to keep things going without having to make a hard decision myself."

>>30224751
>It raised it's eyebrow at you "Your point? It's not going to matter now"
"You're wrong. Because...this is my body. and MY mind! You listen here you piece of shit...I think I'm starting to realize it. I didn't know....no, that's not true. I didn't care about how much other ponies cared about me. I just wanted to do what I wanted to do because I felt it was right. And I didn't want anypony to tell me otherwise. It's the human condition. Or...just my fault. I didn't want to listen because I felt I knew everything. I guess my friends really were right. I was being high and mighty. I also realize that Chrysalis cares about me too.And I care about her. That's not going to change...maybe. But what has to change is her grand plan. I have to stop enabling her. She made everything a game because she knew I'd keep playing until I won. She was never really playing the game to win. Just to bide time. So I know, that as her friend, as everyone's friend. I sometimes have to bite that bullet and make the decision that isn't the best for me. But best for everyone else. Best for the world. It's a hard decision for sure. But everyone has to make that decision sometimes. It'll be hard for Chrysalis too. And, I know it'll hurt if she decides not to. It'll be ok though. It'll be ok to be sad because I'll have my friends to support me. And I'll figure out the rest."
>"Ngh...Y-you got to be kidding me...H-how did you realize all of that so quickly?!" The Tantabus started to crack as bursts of light started to pierce through him.
"Because of my friends. Because of Princess Luna and Celestia. It's already been drilled into my head multiple times already. I just needed someone to give me the push to get it all together. And nothing fucking scarier than some little shit trying to get inside my head, literally. Really puts shit into perspective"
>"....Are you saying the threat of losing your existence pushed you into figuring things out quicker?" He narrowed his eyes at you

>>30224821
>You shrugged
"I dunno..sorta? Yeah, mostly. The other was the shit I saw before getting here. You over did it with the corpses dude. Really shitty move by the way. If this was all real. I would have blasted you with a shotgun"
>"Man..whatever, Fuck you!" The Tantabus yelled out in frustrated rage before exploding into nothingness.
"...."
>You sigh upon his defeat.
".....I really hope. I really really hope. I got it this time. That fucker...no..me. I, really gotta do this. I can't let Thorax try for me. I have to talk to Chrysalis myself. And if she refuses. Then that's it. I have to stand my ground and show her she can't control me. And that will be that."
>For everything after. You'd just have to hope fate would have mercy on her.
>As for the nightmarescape. You noticed it started clear up as the dark space around you began to light up with lights as if you were in space.

>>30224848
Shit, that was pretty wild. Good to see you stayed, Erf.

boop!

>>30224848
Ending and resolution with the tantabus felt a bit clunky and rushed, but I did like the nightmare part, wished that there was some sort of confrontation between Starlight's army and the changelings but what we got was interesting and entertaining, good stuff.

>>30225800
Yeah but I still had my share of fun

Good updates Erf, but I can still figure this will go very poorly for Anon

>>30225800
I do agree with the tantabus part but the thing with the riches was very heavy

>>30222070
I uhm... okay I guess?

>everyone is more concerned about erf's shitty fetish
I mean, the whole thing with Starlight going full dictator because she thinks is the best way to fight off the changelings is fucking great. Props to that great use of erfanon's fears. That said...

That fetish and story.... no, just... no

>>30227184
>>30227184
man, you guys are butts.

in anycase. with it being a dream sequence. I wanted to keep the pace going since any occurences in it would be inconsequential. as for the tantabus......

>assuming its dead

>>30227290
Even worse! He is in a tickling hell!

>>30227639
The tantabus is being subjected to all of erf's weird ass fetishes

Yo time for the new update! Sorry for being tardy with this one.

“…what do you mean?”
>Moon Dancer readjusted her glasses and sighed heavily “You should really read the royal protocols, you know? It’s not like they are confidential or anything and to be honest, they contain vital information for somepony who has a position like yours.”
“Glasses, seriously, have you seen those things? They are larger than life itself; seriously, the introductory one is so thick that it could be used by the Royal Guard as a lethal weapon. Can’t you give me the summary or something?”
>”Anon… you will be reading the protocols as your homework… but ugh…” Moon Dancer shook her head and rolled her eyes “I will explain it briefly since Starlight Glimmer must be waiting for me. Basically, since the three equestrian princesses are in no position to rule Equestria, someone has to assume the responsibilities of leading the Kingdom, and the next in line… well… that would be you, your highness”
“I… I… WHAT?! That is a joke, right? Come on, Glasses. There’s no way in Tartarus that you can be serious about this!”
>Moon Dancer slowly nodded at you ”I’m afraid that I’m being serious. Princess Luna and Celestia don’t remember a thing about her adult lives and Princess Twilight belongs to a mental asylum now. So, until the princesses are able to perform their duties again, the law dictates that you will Equestria’s temporary ruler”
>A chill ran down through your spine, your mind was racing, your legs started to tremble… and…wait a minute, she said… temporary ruler, right? If so, then you must ask a question.
“… and what happens if we fail… what would happen if not even Discord is able to change them back and Twilight never returns from her trip to crazy-mare land?”

>>30228267
>Your fears only increased when Moon Dancer grimaced ”The royal protocol dictates it’s very clear about that scenario. If the princesses aren’t able to go back to their duties ever again, then a coronation ceremony must be celebrated as soon as possible, that would effectively make you the permanent ruler of Equestria”
“Me…? The ruler of the whole kingdom?! C’mon, Moon Dancer, I-I know that I’m a prince a-and yeah, I like it and every single day I do my best to prove that I’m worthy of my title, b-but this is crazy! And besides… hold on there! W-What about Cadence?”
>She shook her head and shrugged “She already rules the Crystal Empire. By what the equestrian law establishes and Princess Cadence’s own limitations as a pony, she simply can’t be the ruler of Equestria too.”
“Right… right… but I’m just a colt… i-isn’t someone else who can do the job while I’m getting ready to actually sit on the throne and y’know… assume command?”
>”Well…” Moon Dancer stared at you stoically “The next pony in line is Blueblood… and I’m sure that nopony would want that outcome.”
>…Blueblood… the sole mention of his name made your blood boil… now that is actually an even worst scenario, one that you can’t let happen.
“I rather surrender the kingdom to a bunch of mean aliens than having to bow to that pompous, idiotic, arrogant, short sighted, mean jerk!
>Moon Dancer rolled her eyes “You’re not the only one. Blueblood isn’t exactly popular or liked across Equestria.” She then walked to you and gently placed her hoof under your chin “Doc, I know that it must be hard for you, but you’re the only one who can take the role and not have to worry about ponies attempting an insurrection.”
“Yeah… It seems like it, that’s why my first action as the temporary ruler is to bring my moms back. Moon Dancer…. Thanks for your support… but it’s time for you to go… and drop the highness thing, will ya? You are not a weird random mare, you’re my weird friend.”

>>30228278
>“I will stop calling you like that if it bothers so much, but” Moon Dancer titled her head and asked with worry in her voice “Are you sure that you want me to go? I could stay a little longer if you still feel nervous, Doc.”
>You weren’t, in fact, you wanted her to stay with you as long as possible, but… ugh… she had an important work to do too.
“I’m sure… don’t worry about me, I-I’ll be fine, promise. I mean, I gotta be, even if this is just a temporary title, I MUST remain calm and cool like my moms always do… You go and help Starlight, I will do my best to contact Discord.”
>”Whatever you say, Doc.” Moon Dancer smiled at you and kissed your forehead, and before finally leaving the study, she turned to you, sighed and gave you a final smile “You know… I wasn’t lying when I told Starlight that I believe in you, I truly do… that’s why I also believe that you will make a spectacular ruler someday, you just need to iron out some details.”
>You took a deep breath and then put up a smug smirk.
“Glasses, please, I’m always spectacular. How could I not be when I have spectacular ponies by my side that help me and guide me when I need them the most? As long as Equestria is filled with wonderful and beautiful ponies like yourself, it’s impossible for me to ever lose.”
>Moon Dancer made a profound bow after hearing those words “I will do my best to not fail you, Doc.” After that, your friend finally left the room.
>And you collapsed on your belly, the nervousness and fear were too much if you screw this… no, no… you just… need to keep with your little charade and execute your plan.
>Okay… okay, before you do anything, let’s go through this, it will help you to be more prepared and to somewhat calm your nerves.

>>30228293
>First of all, there should be no worries about any collateral damage outside of unimportant stuff… like the castle itself, eh… it might be important to some, but you only cared that no pony lost their mind when they saw their “new” princesses, Twilight was more than enough.
>You wonder how Moonlight and Aegia handled the news though, you so wished that they were here, but you also realize that those two have a vital job to do.
>They have to keep the changelings in place, and realistically speaking, even if they could aid you… they would probably not be able to do much in this situation.
>At this point, it was clear that the filly versions of your mothers were way beyond any power measure, which in theory, would make it impossible for any pony to stand a chance against them.
>BUT, but, but! So are Discord and Eris, they can bend reality at will with their chaos magic, so it is a safe bet that they can fix this mess with no problem whatsoever.
>You MUST contact them, and in order to do that, you needed to go to your “secret” laboratory… which is not really a secret anymore… your moms, well, their adult versions already know about it, Eris definitely knows about it, and of course, Cherrywood knows about it, she’s your partner in science after all.
>Speaking of your bat, she is supposed to arrive from Manehattan today, isn’t she? Hmm… well, that’s another reason to fix this as soon as possible, you don’t want her to start a fight with the little Celestia… hmm, that’s kind of a long nickname…
>Maybe Fillylestia could work better? And what about Luna? FillyLuna sounds horrible; maybe you could give her a cute nickname like… heck, you were terrible for this kind of thing. Okay, she is supposed to represent the night and…

>>30228319
>You slapped your face to snap out of that train of thought… you need to focus, darn it! You were doing it an amazing job at not getting derailed; you gotta keep up with that!
>Okay! You have to go to your room which is on the other side of the castle, once there, you need to go to your lab, use the radio to call the chaos duo, then they will make your moms to be adults again and finally…
>Then you will eat some victory pancakes, courtesy of your mom Celestia… oh yeah, baby! This is gonna be rad! Those pancakes are THE pancakes.
>So, with a smile on your face and hope in your heart, you walked out of the study, but stopped right at the door frame when a thought hit you like a truck.
“What if they don’t help me… what if Discord and Eris only bring even more problems to the table?”
>This was important; after all, it was a rule that you should never expect a normal answer from the draconequus family.
>What if Discord and Eris just make things worse on purpose so they can have to get some fun out of it? They are spirits of chaos after all, and this is a golden opportunity to do what they do best.
>Hmmm, Nah, you shouldn’t think about those two like that, Eris is your sister, she has always been and she always will be, even if she likes to mess with you from time to time, you just knew that she had your back.
>Discord can be a jerk, yeah, but regardless you see him like your weird but cool uncle, heck, he has protected you when the situation got dire, and you were fully aware that the guy cares a lot about you.
>They are family, as random as they can be; you have plenty of confidence that they wouldn’t throw you under the bus just to have some laughs.
>You took a deep breath and chuckled, man you really should calm yourself, once those two enter the scene, this will be over and everything would go back to normal.
>You final stepped out of the study and…

>>30228326
“What the…?”
>Why was everything so dark? You were pretty sure that it was just past noon… Are those two fillies responsible for this? It would make sense, considering how excited the little Luna was about playing tricks to anyone who crossed paths with her.
>Dang, you better hurry up!
>You cast a “lantern” spell and started to gallop towards your room. But as soon as you got out of the hallway, you heard a voice coming from the darkness ”Ooooooh~”
>You raised an eyebrow and tilted your head
“Who… goes there?”
>The “ghostly” voice replied back ”Oooooh~! I’m the ghost that lives in the… whatever this castle’s name is. Ooooh~!”
>Was it Cherrywood? Nah, that can’t be, if this was her work, you would hear chains and rattling noises, maybe she would have come up with something to create a faint glowing and something to recreate a poltergeist phenomenon.
>Heck, she could even improvise the whole thing and still be better than this little, yet cute ghost.
>Because when it comes to spooking ponies, there’s no one as good as your bat, that girl really puts an extra effort on the little details which makes everything she does to be simply AMAZING.
>So, that only leaves you with two possibilities, it’s either Twilight acting even crazier than before or…
“You know, ghosts are lost souls who remain in the land of the living because they have unfinished business, making them be bound to the places they haunt. So, tell me Miss Cute Ghost, what is the reason that you don’t remember that you are in Canterlot Castle, and why did you suddenly decided to appear now, out of all times, especially considering that there has never been a case of apparitions in the long history of my home?”
>There was a brief silence before the “ghost” spoke again, just that this time; it was a familiar squeaky voice “Aww, shucks!”

>>30228341
>A frustrated little Celestia walked out of the darkness, rambling to herself “I can never scare anypony! I dunno how Luna does it, she is supposed to be super shy, but geez, she sure is great at the spook-game, it’s like she can see their nightmares are or something!”
>Then the little filly pointed at you with her hoof “And you! Why do you know so much about frickin’ ghosts?! Not even Starswirl and his hairy nose knows THAT much about ‘em!” she then slapped her face “Oh yeah… stupid me… this is the future.”
>You let a smug chuckle and rolled your eyes
“I could say that this is basic knowledge for royalty, but…”
>You shrugged. Heh, you know this can be the perfect opportunity to get rid of her crush. It will make her sad, sure, that will make you feel terrible, of course, but man you can’t let this to continue further.
“The reality is that my special somepony told me, she is amazingly good at understanding everything related to the supernatural, that’s basically her talent.”
>”Y-You have a special somepony? awwwww…” The little Celestia dropped her ears when she heard that, her disappointment was almost palpable.
>But these were good news for you! That means that she will finally stop with-
>”Meh, I can compete with her” The little filly shrugged as she adopted an arrogant pose “I’m Celestia after all, I can compete with anypony and win easily” she then gave you a sly smile “And that includes you, my prince.”
>… Dang
“N-Now, that’s not a healthy attitude for someone who wants to be a princess one day, c-come on Miss C-Celestia, I-I’m already t-taken but we can still be friends.”
>”Nah-ah! I don’t think sooo~” The filly gently shook her head as she got closer to you, very, very close “So, you are taken? Hmmm-hmm-hmmm! That sounds like a challenge, and I looove challenges!”

Came home from Guardians 2.
See something out of the corner of my eye when pulling in to the garage.
Go to front door.
See this.

>>30224848
"Well...that was easy"
>You look around the starry space for Luna. Since it seemed to be over.
"Luna? Luna, you around?"
>"I am here, Anon" Luna appears in a burst of light in front of you. her form majestic as she hovers for a little bit. And lands.
"Ok cool. So, I beat the Tantabus. And the nightmare is over. And I did it in like, thirty seconds because the idiot made beating this nightmare WAY to obvious. I managed to get over my obsession and defeat him. Pretty neat, right?"
>You said as you stood triumphantly
>"Hmmmm..." Luna didn't seem impressed as she looked around
"Uh, Luna? You don't think that's even mildly impressive? I solved my issue and beat a Tantabus. I'm ready for tomorrow morning."
>"Anon, if you had beaten the Tantabus. Then you'd be awake by now"
>Wut?
"Woah woah. That's not right. I did beat him. I watched him explode."
>"Anon, I only know that the Tantabus will keep you within this dreamscape until it get what it wants. It doesn't seem intent on letting you go"
"But I killed it...wait"
>..Oh shit!
>you jumped at Luna's neck and tried to wrestle her down to the ground.
"NGH! GRRR! NGH! TAKE THAT! TANTABUS!"
>Luna just gave you a hard stare "Anon, what are you doing?"
>You hung onto her horn as you looked down at her face.
"..What?...Y-you're not the Tantabus?"
>"....no"
"...oh"
>You smile sheepishly as you slowly get off Luna, and rub her neck gently
"S-sorry, didn't mean to hurt you if I did."
>"FOOLISH BASTARD! I'M NOT DONE YET. NOT WHILE I HAVE ANOTHER AVENUE INTO YOUR MIND!"
>...oh fuck..what?
>You look behind yourself to see a dark shadow rise up in human form. It is a giant, as big as a skyscraper, and it grew arms,hands, a head, and devil horns as it's burning eyes began to alight in flames and lightning.
>"Is that?!" Luna was surprised, she didn't think the your version of the Tantabus was capable of such horrific power.
"HEY! I KILLED YOU!"
>you bark at him

>>30231444
>the shadow laughed as it pointed down at you "Idiot! You should have known I'd have a true form!"
>..shit...maybe you did. He was sorta final bossy.
"Excuse me for being a little rusty. But whatever. so you're big and bad. so what? You have nothing on me, So Princess Luna can beat you down. So erm...get em..Princess Luna..please?"
>"I'm afraid I cannot. Nothing I can do can hurt this Tantabus."
>...wut?
"But...why? He has nothing on me"
>"Oh but I do. Let me ask you." The Tantabus leans in close to you with a malicious grin as he rests his chin on his palm "Did you ever stop to think what was going to happen AFTER the reformation?"
"After?...I uh..."
>"You did actually, a few times before. But that's the thing. You never really had any visual representation of what was going to happen. And I promise, any one of these can happen." The Tantabus stood back up as he opened his palm, facing upwards, to release a series of giant orbs.
>He pointed to the first one, showing Starlight battling the changelings. "This one I think you're familiar with. This could happen should the reformation fail, or appears to succeed only for it to be a trap. Starlight would be the only one available then, and she'd have to take extreme measures to defeat the changelings as they take over Equestria."
>"Silence monster! You know not of what will truly happen. Nor do you understand!" Luna yelled, standing in front of you in your defense.
"Yeah, that's a retarded possibility. It'd never happen!"
>It couldn't!

>>30231515
>"Anything is possible. But I suppose it's also unlikely. So how about this?" The next orb begins to show Fluttershy in utter disappointment. Looking at you and Discord with disapproval. "This is more believable, isn't it? Now that the changelings are reformed. Fluttershy would have to find out eventually about your alliance and friendship with Chrysalis. Maybe even your human identity. All that lying you and Discord have done. She couldn't handle all of it! Her heart would break. And then what would you do?"
>Princess Luna stepped a step closer "Fluttershy is a kind hearted soul. She would know Anon meant well"
>"Who are you to say she would? You think she'd find it ok that her nephew is actually a dirty little human? Or maybe.." The orb starts to expand, showing the CMC, Diamond, and the Riches as well.. all shocked and disappointed "We need to expand. You can't tell me one of these ponies wouldn't find it rather shocking."
>What?
>Oh no...
>"Still unlikely, you underestimate the bonds of friendship and love ponies are capable of" Luna stood her ground
"...Is he?"
>Luna gets surprised, and looks back at you confused "Anon?..what do you mean "is he?" "
"I mean..."
>What was the exact plan they had after the changelings reformed? They said they'd keep you out of it. But, anything can change. And things can go wrong.
"I mean, what exactly are you going to do after the changelings reform?"
>"Anon, well.." Luna seemed to take some time to think about it "My sister and I have talked it over with Thorax. Who wishes to be able to live among us in Equestria. He wants to be known, he wants the changelings to be known, in such he can repair the reputation they have with ponykind. It does not, however, require revealing your past life. Which is not only moot, but might as well not exist."
"...So Fluttershy and the others are going to know about Chrysalis? For sure?"
>"More than likely. But Anon, it's nothing to fret over." Luna tries to explain

>>30231575
>"Oh, but it's TOTALLY something to fret over. You can't tell him with certainty that everything will be ok, can you?" The Tantabus smirked arrogantly as another orb appeared. With ponies losing faith in the princesses "The changelings have been hated for many moons, have they not?"
>"As true as that may be, you cannot be certain that everything will run afoul" Luna stays confident, trying to force the Tantabus back with her words "Anon, you mustn't listen!"
>More orbs began to light up. Showing you possibilities. All the more likely than everyone just being like "Welp! I accept the bugs"
>That would never fucking happen.
>That'd be like Starlight becoming Twilight's student or Rainbow Dash's parents being adorably awesome.
>It just doesn't happen.
"...ngh..."
>Then you saw one. Of Discord losing hope in you. That he was still mad at you. So frustrated that he just cast you aside.
>It hurt
>It hurt because once again. You had to be hard headed.
>As you looked down in shame. You started to be enveloped by darkness.
>"Anon! Do not give in!" Luna frantically started blasting at the enveloping darkness. But it was no use. You were becoming too far gone.
>The Tantabus started to laugh maniacally. "I'M SO CLOSE! HAHAHAHAHAHA!"
>You didn't even realize that you were being sucked away into the darkness. As your mind became riddled with lost hope.
"I'm going to lose everyone...I'm going to lose my family. Discord...I'm sorry."
>You started to cry. as you hid your head into your hooves.
"I should've have listened. I shouldn't have been so hard headed. Everytime, I just....relapse...or just end up being a dick. You're the one who brought me here dammit! I should have been focused on you. And Fluttershy...our family"
>You cried tears as you sniffled, your face crimson from the sheer amount of stress on your mind.
"Discord..I'm sorry....look, when...if...I get back. Let's go mess with Twilight..huh?"
>The Darkness was starting to eat away at your body
"I'd like that"

>>30231653
>"Is that a promise?" A voice says from within the darkness
"Yeah...I....wait"
>...Discord?..he couldn't be.
"Discord?...O-or am I...holy shit. things got dark quick"
>"Indeed, things do look rather grim. But still, are you willing to make that a promise?" The familiar voice says again
"Y-yeah, if you forgive me...d-do you forgive me?"
>"Maybe, we can toy with purple prudey princess. Or you can guarantee we'll do it at least three times without you whining" The voice says
"Yeah! Y-Yeah!..but...Aren't you mad at me?"
>"I was, until you promised. Heck, the only reason I'm here is because you were screaming in your sleep "ohhh nooo! Starlight!" "Agh! Diamond!" "Oh no, not a stupid version of me! Whatever will I do!". It's hard to sleep with all that racket so i might as well get SOME compensation out of having to hear you yell like that."
>.....
"You're an asshole Discord"
>"I prefer to call it whimsical"
>Discord's paw bursts through the darkness and holds itself out to you. "Now let's get you out of here before I change my mind"
>You smiled as you cried tears of happiness.
>You grabbed on as he grasped you tightly and pulled out of the darkness.
"haha! Discord! You're so damn awesome. I didn't think I'd be able to get out...of...the...dream?"
>you were still in the nightmare.
"...Discord...why aren't we out of the nightmare?"
>You looked back, and saw the Tantabus screaming it's head off.
"...what's going on with him?"
>"Ahh, about that. I thought i'd pull one of those "Deus Ex Machinas" from one of those human cartoons. Turns out I lack a certain knack for dreams like wittle Woona do put down a creature like that. Soooooo, while you still have doubt in your mind, that Tantabus still exists."
"Uh huh..."
>But...
"That doesn't explain why it's screaming it's lungs out"

>>30231741
>"Well Anon, you see. hmmm, how to put this. Well....I tried destroying him with my magic. But I accidentally gave him more power than he could handle and now he's going to explode and take your mind with it. Leaving you a mindless blithering shell in the real world"
>Oh, was that all.
"WHAT?! I JUST FORGAVE YOU, YOU DIPSHIT! I'D RATHER STILL HAVE A CHANCE TO COME BACK THEN BECOME A DAMNED VEGETABLE!"
>if you had fingers, you'd be curling them from the seething rage you felt right now.
>you looked back at the Tantabus and pointed your hoof at it
"I think everything will be alright! So go away!"
>Nothing
"I THINK EVERYTHING WILL BE ALRIGHT! SO GO AWAY!"
>It was still there, screaming, as the walls of the nightmare began to crack.
"Why isn't it working?"
>"As I said, you still have doubt in your mind. Or at least, that is what Princess Luna said"
>Princess Luna?
>Actually. looking around, she was gone. Where did she?
"You....didn't poof her away trying to be a hero...did you?"
>"Oh, good heavens no. She went off to bring some of your friends here to help you get over your doubt. All I had to do was pull you out. So, I might as well have gotten that promise out of you in the process. Everypony wins!" Discord smiles cheerfully as he raises his arms victoriously.
"...Oh, yeah...super overjoyed here"
>You say in a sarcastic tone.
"But, wait. What do you mean bring some of my friends here?"
>Discord shrugged "No idea. But I do know that should they come. They also risk some sort of mental break from the Tantabus reducing your mind to mush. Nothing severe, but the knowledge of knowing they failed will be embedded deep into their mind"
"...That....is not comforting. And you say that as if it's no big deal"

>>30231836
>"Hey! I'm just saying it as it is, Anon. I'm here too. I would suffer the same fate as the rest of...whoever is showing up" Discord said as he put on his sunglasses "I'm just cool like that"
>....ugh, Discord. You.....great guy...bastard
"Then you should go. If it's that dangerous, nopony is going to come for me. And there's no point in you suffering"
>"Nice try, But I'm going to see this through to the end. Can't have you backing out of your promise by saying I backed out of your head" Discord snickered.
>....
>You turned around, and gave him a hug.
"I hate you so much right now....buddy"
>Discord softened up a moment, and hugged you back. You could feel that he was shaking ever so subtly. He was afraid. He was afraid of you failing.
>With each passing moment. The walls of the nightmare began to crack as the Tantabus continued it's screaming.
>Suddenly, a hole opened up beside you two.
>Luna came out first, as the CMC, Starlight, and Fluttershy came tumbling down through the portal.
>"I have returned, and have brought help!" Luna exclaims as the piles of ponies compose themselves and begin to get up, looking around and seeing the abominable horror.
>"WHAT THE?!" Discord noticed Fluttershy,and looks to Luna with shock "YOU DIDN'T SAY YOU'D BE INVOLVING FLUTTERSHY!"
>"You would have stopped me if I tried Discord, she is important to this. Without her, Anon will never be able to come to terms with what he's afraid of" Luna says, as she steps aside for the group. "And I know you don't want to lose him anymore than anypony else. Don't be stubborn. Or you'll lose him"
>Discord just looked at Luna with dark anger "Of course.....you just better be right. "
>"Woah! is that that there Tantabus thing?! It looks worse than Luna's" Applebloom said with a shout, pointing at it
>"...It's noisy too. Ugh!" Sweetie Belle said as she put her hooves to her ears.

>>30231893
>"It's big, but it doesn't look that bad!" Scootaloo looked like she wanted to touch it.
>"Ok, I'm here. and WHAT IN EQUESTRIA?! THAT'S A TANTABUS?!" Starlight was in shock
>"...Anon?" Fluttershy was looking around. When she saw you. She rushed up to you and gave you a big hug. Holding you as if to protect you "Anon! What's going on! Princess Luna said you were being attacked by a Tantabus. Your Tantabus. And...that you'd lose yourself if you lost."
>You almost expected Diamond to be among them. But it'd make sense Luna wouldn't go to her. She would probably complicate things. She probably wasn't used to Princess Luna and the ways of the Dreamworld like the CMC and Fluttershy. Starlight though? she's wigging out.
>You hugged Fluttershy, and began to tear up.
"Aunt Fluttershy. You came to help me? D-didn't Princess Luna say what'd happen if I lost?"
>"She did, and I didn't care. You're family Anon. If I can protect you. Then I will. No matter what" Fluttershy said as her hug became even more compassionate.
>..Fluttershy
"What about you guys?"
>The CMC cheered
>"We couldn't let ya do it alone Anon!" Applebloom smirked
>"I mean, duh. You're kind of hard headed. You definitely need us" Sweetie Belle said
>"And we're friends. And friends don't let other friends down!" Scootaloo was totally ready for a fight.
>Starlight just kept staring at the Tantabus. "Anon, I'm here for the same reason they are. But oh my gosh. I was not expecting this..."
>you had your friends. and you'd think that'd have been enough.
>But still..the Tantabus persisted.
"Their here, I feel better. But it's still there. What's going on?"

>>30231934
>"You still have doubt Anon. About the future. You are afraid you'll be misunderstood. I brought your friends and family who knows varying levels of your past. To secure your future. You must come to terms with the now." Luna explains to you.
>"....That makes no sense, whatcha mean by that Princess Luna?" Applebloom asked.
>"And ummm...I don't see Nymous anywhere? did....did she not care to come?" Fluttershy asked, feeling a little hurt that your own sister wouldn't come to save you.
>Of course, Luna never even went to her for obvious reasons.
>and you tensed up.
>You knew what she meant.
>She couldn't possibly.
>"Anon?..what does Princess Luna mean?..Are you alright?" Fluttershy asked, worried now that you seemed frozen in fear.
>No..not now.
>..Why now?
>Starlight already knew most of everything....she must have been brought because she knew.
>The CMC...didn't know you were human.
>And Fluttershy......Nymous
>"Anon. You don't have much time. You may choose how to defeat the Tantabus. But if it doesn't actually defeat it. You will be lost forever. Whatever it is about the future that bothers you, now is the time to remove that fear." Luna said as she saw you didn't have much time. The walls were nearly gone.
>"Why can't we just pound it?" Scootaloo flew up, giving the thing an angry eye "All of us can take it, can't we? We can't just let Anon be "lost" forever!"

>>30231985
>"I could try to whip up a spell but. From what Princess Luna said..." Starlight turned to you "Anon..." She could see you were in shock. "Anon, hey. What's wrong? Anon?"
>....you had to tell them the truth
>But...you couldn't
>"Anon..." Fluttershy held you close "Please, whatever is going on. You have to tell me. It can't be that bad. I....I promise. No matter what it is. I will never stop loving you. You have my word. Please don't be afraid of me...please don't be afraid of your aunt. I just want to help. I..."
>Fluttershy started to cry
>"I don't want to lose you."
>...Fluttershy
>You never thought you'd see this day.
>You were hoping you'd never have to tell her.
>But since you were technically going to die anyway....
"Starlight. Do you mind helping me out with this? I'm going to explain....y'know...those...things"
>You slowly stepped away from Fluttershy, giving her a short hug as you walked towards Starlight
>"...You're really going to do it?" Starlight asks
"Yeah, and I need your help to clear things up in case my explanation isn't clear. Can you do that for me?"
>Starlight nodded "Of course."
>And so you began.
>It was hard, but first you began with Nymous.

>>30232057
>you started to explain how that all started. From messing with Chrysalis, to her becoming Nymous. The CMC seemed to be ok with understanding it better. But Fluttershy seemed more and more hurt as you explained. By the time you were done. She seemed deep in thought.
"...So yeah...that's it. I was a big idiot.It was a lie..."
>"But! But! Like Anon said. He only had good intentions. He wanted to try to reform her like he did me. But it looks like things....kinda got out of control" Starlight gave a big smile. To try to lessen the blow.


and we'll continue tomorrow

erf you absolujte madman I love it

>>30231004
Coo!

>>30232109
>Realizing that her nephew is a lying dick, Fluttershy moves out of town and starts a new life under a different name and cutie mark.

>>30232109
Oh man, this is so fucking exciting!

>>30232109
Holy fuck, its been so long since I've been excited for an update of yours, erf.

>>30233088
Same here, I'm so fucking excited that sonething is finally happening

>>30232109
I'm disappointed in you. You were supposed to finish the story, not keep dragging it out.

>>30232109
Oh crap this is intense.
This is quality material, should try to get a separate MLP comic series...

boop

>>30233852
Or any other series, the current comics are fucking awful, just awful

>>30235103
well. the reason for that is because we've reached the story's final and logical climax. Anything after the next chapter(s) would work much better as one shots

>>30235117
About erfanon or the kids?

>>30235702
both

>>30235117
What ever will the Erfanon-Z guy do?!

>>30235914
Thay could work, you could tackle kid, teen and adult erfanon that way

Apparently shitty pigeons love my house and love shitting all over my roof. Hopefully some low velocity pegs with a bb will encourage them to move on.

>>30236973
Did you have luck?

>>30237531
Only one was there when I got back from food shopping and I hit it right in the chest, making a soft thwack sound, and it flew away. Hasn't been back yet but it's night and I'm going to check again soon. It was only a two pump shot, just enough for accuracy at 30 feet. I heard the bb bounce off when it hit so it should be fine. One pump and it doesn't even go that far.

>>30237602
Good luck with the rest of those flying rats, pidgeon anon

>>30232109
>"Well, of course Anon had good intentions. Ah mean, bug breath ain't ever gonna change. But if it weren't for Anon tryin'. Ah'd have never met Scrappy. He's the best changeling ever" Applebloom said with a cheerful smile.
>"W-what?!..So Anon, you really are....And..w-wait..A-a-applebloom. Isn't Scrappy your dog?" Fluttershy seemed utterly confused
>"...Oh...I didn't realize she still didn't know. It's not bad that you know that part, right?" Sweetie Belle asked, looking away nervously.
>"U-uhmm..Does Applejack know?" Fluttershy asked hesitatingly
>The CMCs shook their head.
>"......." Fluttershy fell silent, which made you feel tense.
"Aunt Fluttershy. I know it was stupid of me to try. That's why I said Celestia and Thorax are coming to come tomorrow to deal with it. I know..it's...bad that somepony you considered your niece turned out to be an enemy. And...I'm sorry I didn't tell you. And..it gets even worse than that. Something, that even you three don't know. I..."
>Fluttershy's eyes were shimmering. The CMC seemed surprised. they thought they knew everything about you. You didn't know if you could continue.
>Then you looked at Discord, who was nervous, and swiping his talon across his own throat. Telling you silently to not mention that part.
>You look to Starlight. knowing that for this. Discord wouldn't help.
>Starlight smiles back at you. "Anon, go for it. I mean, I don't hate you. I kind of had this feeling of wanting to study you a little. But y'know. Eheheh" She chuckles nervously.
>It makes you smile. Fluttershy was pretty forgiving..but...
>...and the CMC but...
>The dread that just left you washes back over you.
>But the dread of losing your mind was even worse.
>....you were going to lose Fluttershy, or the CMC, or both.
>"Anon...what does she mean?" Fluttershy asked "Why would she want to study you? does me mean your horn?"
>if the situation wasn't so serious. you'd make a joke out of that.

>>30238178
>..still. looking into her eyes. She was in distress. Just get it over with.
"Aunt Fluttershy...Applebloom,Sweetie Belle, Scoots....I'm....not a pony"
>They of course. Gasp, all yelling "Yes!" As Discord slaps his own face.
"I mean! I didn't used to be..look. Before Anypony says anything. I just want to get thi-"
>"How is that even possible?! Anon, you can't have been anything else but a pony, right? How would you even change into a pony?" Scootaloo interrupts.
>You silently point to Discord.
>"...oh right...But, then-" you interrupt Scootaloo with a raise of your hoof
"Scoots, please....look. Everypony..look. Before Discord brought me here. To Equestria. I lived in another dimension on a planet called earth. I was something called a "human". It's kind of like that screaming guy there. But without the horns, smaller, and not as scary. But humans themselves? They could be scary, and many were. There's no such thing as "the magic of Friendship" or any magic really. Humans would hate each other. fight wars. Many would...well..die. There was no happiness for many humans. only a future working a job you hate, having dishonest friends, parents who don't care about you, and any one thing breaking down capable of ruining your life. I guess if anypony was wondering why sometimes I got kinda dark, that's why. But, as a human. I was pretty smart....and..."
>Sweetie Belle started giggling
"Uhhhhhhhhhhh...something funny there Sweetie Belle? Because this is pretty heavy for me"
>"I mean..it's just the...nothing. But Anon, why does that all matter?" Sweetie Belle asks
"Because humans are terrible beings. And the only reason I even got here was because Discord offered me a deal in the paradise of Equestria in trade of pretending to be his son to make Aunt Fluttershy happy and mess with Twilight...that might be it"
>Discord winced at that. And as Fluttershy turned to face him. he gave her a nervous smile. "N-now now Fluttershy. What is said MAY be true. But...but...."

>>30237966
Thanks. I hope that one I scooped up last night got eaten by a bird of prey in the night or in the morning because it was gone the next day. I specifically placed it in the middle of a stony field next to my house so there wasn't any cover. I think it was sick or something anyway because it didn't mind when I gently nudged it in my snow shovel.

>>30238279
Oh shit

>>30238279
>"Discord...why wouldn't you tell me this?" Fluttershy asked, with a heartbroken tone.
"A-aunt Fluttershy...It's not his fault. Well, I mean. It is. But..it's mine too. In fact. It's mostly mine. Discord did a lot for me, and sometimes i realize this, but then i mess up and give him guff for it.Or worse, I make him angry over my own insecurities. He gave me the horn. He gave me a second chance at life. And I, who's supposed to be his pretend son, can't even do that right. And then there's you. There was a time where I felt awful lying to you. The princesses, they told me that my old life didn't matter anymore, and to accept this new one. And for a good while. I was doing that. But....for how long would I be able to keep that secret? I'm not your nephew, I'm not his son. I'm just a guy who came looking for a free ride. And..."
>You look over at the Tantabus
"That's why none of you should even be here. You came for Anon the colt. But I'm just Anon the fool. Trust me, your lives would be a lot better off without me."
>"Well...that ain't true" Applebloom says outright. Like..if everything you said didn't matter
"What?"
>"What do you mean, "what"? Anon, who cares if you're from some other dimension? Unless you're telling us that you're not the hard headed, high and mighty, but great and brave colt we got to know" Sweetie Belle said, smiling a bit of a cocky smile at you
"...I...er"
>"Yeah, I don't think you could fake all that stuff. I mean if you were faking it. Then you'd think Rainbow Dash is the best. Which she is, don't get me wrong. But I can spot a faker from a mile away. And you're not a faker to me" Scoots said as she sat and crossed her forelegs together and nodded. Sure of herself.
"...Scoots...Applebloom...Sweetie Belle..."
>You started to tear up as you look to Fluttershy.
"But..I lied to you the most. I mean, I'm not even a little k-"
>"Anon" Fluttershy interrupts you, as she gives you a sad hard stare
>You stopped, and froze up, tense

>>30238337
Wut

>>30238311
>"I only know you as Anon, my nephew. My sweet little gentlecolt. I don't know you as anypony else." She started to weep "A-anon, i-if it really is all a lie...does that mean...You don't enjoy my company?"
>WHAT?!
"NO, NO, I LOVE YOUR COMPANY! YOU'RE THE SOFTEST AND NICEST PONY I KNOW! YOU ALWAYS MAKE ME FEEL GREAT WHEN I FEEL BAD! And..and.."
>you started to tear up again
>You couldn't continue your words.
>"I see..Anon, what about when I hug you, or when you rest beside me, and I put my wing over you to keep you warm. Was...that a lie?" She asks
"N-no...I...love resting under your wing. It makes me feel safe, as if nothing can hurt me, even my-myself"
>"Anon...I-I have one more question" She took a big breath, as did you.
>...what could it be?
>"....you never really liked that healthy meal I made for you the other day. did you?"
>.....ngh
>You felt ashamed
"...n-no...I....I only said I did to make you happy. Because...I didn't want to see you sad. I...I..."
>You lurch forward and fall, crying your eyes out.
"I'M SORRY! I'M SORRY! I'M SORRY! I'M SORRY! I'M SOR-"
>You felt yourself in a warm embrace.
>Fluttershy was hugging you. crying, rubbing your head with her hoof. "Shhhhhhhh.....it's alright. I knew you didn't like it, but I didn't want to make you sad by saying anything. I didn't want to make you feel bad."
"Y-you're not mad?"
>"No. Because you're still Anon. The Anon I know. You didn't ever try to really trick me. You even risked your life for me. Anon, how could you be a fool, a human, or anything else but my little Anon? If you were faking it, I would have known. I never knew you before I met you, I only know you from when I met you. And I know that you're sweet and kind deep inside." Fluttershy's warmth, her hug, is was so full of care. You just sobbed as you dug your face into her chest.
"I love you, Aunt Fluttershy. Please don't hate me.."

>>30238364
>"I love you too Anon, now shhhh...you don't need to worry anymore. I'm here. I'll always be here, always. No matter what"
>The CMC found the whole moment touching. they couldn't help but cry and join in. Even Discord broke out, and grabbed you all and hugged.
>Luna had a tear in her eye as she sniffed
>Starlight just looked on at the Tantabus as the area started to shatter "H-hey everypony, I hate to be the party pooper here but there's still the little problem of Anon losing his mind."
>everyone's eyes went wide as the Tantabus's yelling became the focus once again.
>"..o-oh right..but..what do we do? How can we stop it?" Fluttershy asked, ready to fight if she had to.
>You looked back at the Tantabus.
>You looked at your friends.
>they didn't care about Anon the human.
>They cares about you...who you were now.
>And now...you knew what to do.
"I know what to do now...."
>You started walking towards the Tantabus.
>Fluttershy felt afraid, and tried to hold you back. But Starlight held her. And told her you'd be ok.
>everyone wished you good luck.
>they were rooting for you
>You felt their strength course through you.
".....I won't let myself be lost Tantabus. Your mind may be broken, but you're still there because of my doubt. Well...NO MORE! I HAVE MY PRIORITIES STRAIGHT AND I KNOW WHAT'S IMPORTANT! MY FRIENDS! THEY CARE ABOUT WHO I AM, NOW WHO I WAS!...and I thank them for it. Even when sometimes, I don't show it. You're no longer needed. You only exist because I needed a guiltless out. Well no more! I'll face any challenge head on...mostly. But you get my point. NOW GET..THE FUCK..OUT!"
>The Tantabus's mad screams changed into pained ones as it started to light up, and explode violently. Covering the entire area with a white light.
>A warming light
>A light that felt like everything for you would be ok.

>>30238413
>When you turned, you saw Discord standing behind you. Wearing four pairs of sunglasses " egh, a light full of harmony and love. You didn't need to be that dramatic"
"C'mon Discord, I saw you hugging. Don't be a dick"
>You smirked at him
>"Ehhhh, I got caught up in the moment. But, it seems you managed to beat the Tantabus. Huzzah for you. Still, Fluttershy didn't need to hear that last part"
"What, the human thing?"
>"No, that curse word. You...you didn't need to say that"
>....doh
"O-oh....erm...ugh. I'm sure she didn't really hear it..umm..where is everypony else. Anyway?"
>"I'd imagine they woke up. That was quite the blast."
"Yeah I'm sure...but. I feel better now. And I mean it this time. And....you're not upset about me blowing up on you. Right? Cuz I'm sorry about that"
>"It's alright Anon, water under the bridge. Besides, we get to have sooooo much fun with Twilight later. So it's alright. Ahh, speaking of fun. You'll be waking up soon. How are you going to handle Chryssy? Because at this very moment, Princess Celestia and Thorax are in my living room."
>WHAT?!
"ALREADY?!"
>"Well Anon, you have been sleeping for a good while after that blast. You already missed school. I kept them busy with some....normal...plain..tea" Discord said, mouthing the last few words painfully "But Celestia is stubborn."
"Well, did you tell her about this dream? I can't imagine her being stubborn when....ugh..you didn't tell her shit, did you?"
>"Of course not, I'm a being of chaos, Anon, have to keep you on the tip of your hooves." Discord said with a grin.
"Yeah...I can only imagine I'm gonna be stressed as fuck after all this. I think..I'll go see Fluttershy when it's over. take a nap under her wing. That'd be nice.....and of course, I'd let her know how much..Ahh damn! I should get her a present!"

>>30238497
>"Hmmm, I should also give her a present. Annnyyyhoooo. I hope you really are prepared Anon. Because it's just going to be you,Celestia, and the bugs. I'll be sitting in the bleachers watching the show"
>You snickered
"Course, I wouldn't have it any other way....I really wouldn't"
>you look at him with a serious look.
"I want to try talking to Chrysalis. Whatever she decides, that's it. I won't betray my friends for her, I won't even think about it."
>"I know you won't. Fluttershy would never forgive ME if you flubbed up. So, just do your best. I believe in your, yadda yadda. You know what I mean"
"I know...put it here pal"
>You hold your hoof out
>Discord goes to grab it, but you dodge and hug him suddenly.
"Thanks Dad...I wouldn't be here without you."
>Discord was silent. But you could feel his arms gently wrap around you, and embrace you in a hug as everything went into a haze.
>When you awoke, you were back in your room. Everything was in place as before.
>You stretched, and looked forward with a smile. thankful for all your friends and what they do for you
>You yawned, got up, and opened the portal door to Ponyville. Behind it was the town basked in another beautiful and sunny day.
>The floor door was there.
>And you knew Celestia and Thorax was just beyond it.
>.....just talk to them Anon.
>no tricks
>you smirked
"Ain't even stressin'"
>You got up, and opened the floor door with confidence in your heart.
>You stepped through
>And fell, right into the living room floor headfirst.
>Because as you were focused on your newfound confidence, you forgot to focus on the gravity stairs.
"..........course"

>>30238600
>"Anon?...Are you alright?" Princess Celestia had noticed you fall, she used her magic to set you on your hooves. She sighs. "I was hoping we would not meet like this. But it seems Discord did not understand the urgency in my letter. That's my fault actually"
>"Um...Hi Anon, are you alright?" Thorax said waving his hoof. Feeling a little uncomfortable, yet worried for you.
"Ok, one, let me bring you up to speed. I just finished beating up a Tantabus. Princess Luna was there and everything. And now Fluttershy and the CMC know my secrets. And two, yeah...I'm used to it. I'm here, not to stop you two, but to get things done. I understand now how serious this is...also hi Thorax"
>You rushed through your words as quick as you could. You didn't want Celestia to suddenly magic you away or question you. So you spoke rapidly, without stopping. Except to greet Thorax
>"A Tantabus? My sister?....hrn" Celestia took the time to ponder your words. Part of her expected you to try something. But, she didn't expect the events that you mentioned. "Anon...what exactly do you understand?"
>....
>You sigh, and slow down.
"I understand that I've been a putz. An idiot. That I mistreated my friends. And that my obsessions made me make bad decisions.I should have respected what Chrysalis was. But, I also still understand that she is my friend. So Princess Celestia. I'm here to ask you. Please, let me have one more go. Right here, and if she refuses. That's it. I leave her to you. You have my word."
>You knelled and bowed to her in respect.
>Celestia was silent.
>She looked to Thorax with a smile "I'm convinced. How about you Thorax?"
>"I uhh....ok? I mean, I'd like for everypony to be reformed. And if Anon wants to try. Then, well...I agree. I'm convinced too" Thorax said, a little confused on the situation, but he didn't want to be a prude on anyone.
"yeah! Thanks you guys and!...Thorax, woah. Is that what your wings turned into?"

>>30238693
>His wings had lost their nasty bug look. and became blue with a beautiful shining luster.
>"Oh, yes! Do you like them? I think their great!" Thorax smiled cheerfully as he flittered his wings. He seemed so proud of them. "And I still haven't gotten hungry either. I..." He stopped and gave a warmer, self confidant smile "I feel great"
"Thorax, that's great. I really mean that.And I wish you the best of luck. I'll be at your side for this since..well..y'know"
>"And I wish you lots of luck too. I know, I can just feel it, that a lot of good will come out of this!" Thorax said with a cheer
"Yeah, me too"
>Celestia could already see the change in you. Whatever dream you had. It seemed to have fixed your disposition and attitude for sure. She'd have to ask her sister about this Tantabus later. She felt at ease. To see you happy, to see Thorax happy. She made a wish, for the best of success. The strongest victory possible. She didn't want either of you to be disappointed. And should something go wrong. She would stand firm. to protect the both of you from whatever harm might come your way down in that basement.
>The time was here.
>To face Chrysalis, possibly one last time.

Stay tuned Anons...the final chapter is upon us

>>30238783

Or
Don't you want to stay friends with me? All those good times, and we can keep having them if you change your ways?

Then there's the whole hive thing. I'm sure some might want to reform and have their own lives but what about the hard liners that think like the ex captain? Would they reform or just follow Chrissy (I'm guessing she won't want to reform)?

>the final chapter is upon us
I'm not ready

>>30240370
it won't be my final post. But the story needs to end

>>30240464
To be fair this. I am all for little one shots but the main story has been dragging on for too long, it is time to end

>>30228346
“I-I’m afraid that you got the wrong idea, I like Cherrywood a lot, I would never-“
>”Oh, so that’s her name?” She giggled “Pffft! Puh-lease! Whatever that Cherrytrunk can do, I can do it ten times better, besides…” she moved under you and nuzzled her head on your chest “I know you kinda like meee~”
“W-What?! Where did you get that idea?!”
>You moved her away from you but the only response you got was the little Celestia nuzzling under your chin ”Oh, I can just tell by how you adorably stutter when I get close”
“Miss Celestia-“
>”Sshh…” The little Celestia gently placed her hooves on your lips as she looked with dreamy eyes “Admit it, my prince… you just won the lottery”
>Okay, okay, okay, okay, okay, okaaaay! This is bad, like super bad. You have to come up with some clever, no; a GENIUS way to get this filly off of you… and you just came up with that.
>So you gasped and pointed behind the filly
“Great Scott! A hydra has gotten inside the castle!”
>The little Celestia immediatly lighted up her horn and adopted a battle stance. “A hydra?! Don’t you worry, my cute prince! Because I, Celestia, will protect you from- wait a minute…” she looked left and right, but there was only darkness to be seen “There’s no hydra here.”
>Oh, yeah baby! Your distraction worked brilliantly! Before she could ask you anything, you teleported away from her and appeared right in front of the royal dinner.
>Good, you skipped a good chunk of the castle, only a couple hallways more and you are golden. You looked around, heh, no filly in sight. Of course, you needed to celebrate this with a victory dance! Let’s groove, yo!
>You started moving your head and neck back and forth as you tried your best to do the “Egyptian walk”
“Eh-Eh-Eh, Eh-Eh-Eh-Eh-Eh! Eh-Eh-Eh, Eh-Eh-Eh-Eh-Eh! Eh-Eh-Eh, Eh-Eh-Eh-Eh-Eh!”

>>30240855
>But your amazing celebration got canceled in the most horrendous way possible when you heard a little voice “Eh-Eh-Eh, Eh-Eh-Eh-Eh-Eh! Eh-Eh-Eh, Eh-Eh-Eh-Eh-Eh! Eh-Eh-Eh, Eh-Eh-Eh-Eh-Eh!”
>You quickly looked behind you, and there she was… the little Celestia happily imitating your little dance.
“AAAH!”
>She then giggled, flew above you and looked down at you with an arrogant face “Going somewhere, my prince?”
“You! When did you… but, I thought that… How?!”
>The little Celestia gave you a little wink and shrugged “You really run fast, you know that? But guess what, my prince, you’re not the only pony who can teleport, well, I’m not either… and gotta admit that I’m not even the best one, have you seen how Luna teleports? She can go from one side of the dark forest to the other and back with no problem and…”
>She giggled and tapped her horn “Sorry, I got a bit derailed, it happens sometimes. What I wanted to say is that this filly knows her way with magic too… so…” she put her face close to yours “I’m ready for my super special lesson in magic.”
“Now, now Miss Celestia, y-you really don’t need a magic lesson from me. I mean, you and your sister just beat up an alicorn and two very powerful unicorns, it is clear that you are WAY better at magic than me”
>”True…” the little Celestia landed on the floor as she giggled “But there are many, many things about magic I don’t know of… like the magic of love.”
>You took a step back but ended up being backed against a wall, the little filly, in turn, got dangerously closer to you.
>… Okay, screw any distractions or plans, you had to get Discord to fix this and pronto! So you immediately teleported right outside your room and sighed in relief when you noticed that there were no fillies in the proximity, just the weird darkness.

>>30240874
>Of course, this moment of calmness wasn’t meant to last. As soon as you placed your hoof on the door, you heard the little Celestia’s voice coming from behind you.
>The little Celestia booped your muzzle with her hoof ”I got youuu~!” She giggled “And now you…!” She then noticed your room entrance and tilted her head in confusion “Hey, what’s up with the lavender flowers on the door frame?”
>Well, it is not like you could get annoyed that she pointed them out, still… it did make you feel a bit… sad. Those flowers were placed each night by your mom Luna, and well… she’s not truly here anymore.
>”My prince, err… Anon? Are you feeling okay?” The little filly asked with a worried tone
>You quickly shook your head and gave the little Celestia a fake reassuring smile.
“Yeah… uh… please, Miss Celestia, do not worry about me, alright? I was just thinking about some… stuff related to my work as a prince.”
>”Oh, okay… um…” the little Celestia rubbed the back of her neck “So what’s the deal with this place anyways?”
“Well… I suppose that is my fault for not being a good host, you see, this door right here leads to my room, but-“
>”Your room? Can I come in?” The little Celestia started to rapidly and excitedly stomp her hooves “Oh man, I so want to see it! Please, please, please can I see your room?”
>Hmmm… considering the circumstances this could be a very, very stupid move, but desperate times called for desperate solutions.
“Very well, but before that happens, you have to promise me something, Miss Celestia. Nothing major, it’s just for… eh… you could say that this is a way to make your lessons a tad more interesting. In this case, you have to promise that under no circumstance you will cast a teleportation spell, deal?”
>”Deal!” And before you could say anything else, the filly quickly opened the door and flew into your room.

>>30240893
>”Hey, you got yourself a super nice place in here!” The little filly said as she inspected everything with curious eyes “What are these posters that are hung along the walls and oh! What’s up with the creepy masks that are everywhere? And oooooh! You have So. Many. Books! I love it! It’s just like my room!”
>You wanted to protest against that remark towards Cherrywood’s masks. You two spent a lot of time working on those, and you loved that she used them as decorations for your room but…
>While the little Celestia inspected your book collection, you moved in a stealthy way towards the magical trapdoor that led to the lab.
>Of course, you continued to address her so you wouldn’t raise any suspicion.
“Indeed I have a wide diversity of books from many different eras, please, feel free to read them as much as you want while I go… and prepare some stuff…”
>”Huh?” The little Celestia dropped a book that she just had picked up and looked at you with curiosity “Things? What things?”
>Okay, the trapdoor was right behind you, you just needed to very subtly open it with one of your hinder legs while you kept her distracted.
“You know, things… of the royal kind…”
>”Really?” the filly narrowed her eyes at you when she noticed the trapdoor that was half open, and your leg being the culprit of that “And what kind of royal business do you have with a mysterious trap door, eh my prince?”
“Well, you see…”
>Screw this, it is now or never. You quickly opened the trap door and jumped down, landing perfectly on your hooves… thank you, Rainbow Dash’s training.
>”Oh, so you are playing hard to get!” The little filly yelled as she quickly flew down “Well guess what, my prince? I like that game”
>You immediately teleported to a sort of middle point inside the “gem” tunnel. Fairly away from the trap door, but not too close to your lab. You then sat on your butt and waited for the filly to catch up with you.

>>30240915
>Which didn’t take long, the little Celestia was actually a fast flyer ”You know, this teleportation game is starting to get, sooo boooring! C’mon, don’t tell that’s all you have for me, my prince.”
>You shrugged as you gave the filly a smug grin
“I suppose that I have no option but to please your curiosity, eh? Very well, Miss Celestia, this is a special trick just for you”
>You concentrated a lot of magic in your horn as you focused on a particular spell that you wanted to cast.
>While you knew that you couldn’t hold her for too long, you could still buy some time, but for that to happen, you needed this spell to be as powerful and efficient as possible.
>And once you spell was finally cast, the little filly gasped ”Whoa! What the hay is this!”
>… Ironic, considering that it was technically her who helped you to perfect your shield spell. Well, rather than a spell, it was giant and thick magical barrier that stood in between you and the little Celestia.
>The little Celestia tapped the barrier “Hm, I remember that Starswirl was working on a… hm, how did she call it? Shield spell? It had to be something like that, that crazy stallion always picks up the dumbest names for his spells, like c’mon, he created a spell to make tea out of thin air and he named it the “tea-maker spell”, like puh-lease, I know the name works but… Uhm, I think that I’m getting a bit derailed, point is that he was working on something like this”
>The little filly then gave the barrier a might buck “But this one is waaay sturdier than anything Starswirl and his hairy nose has ever done. Pretty cool, now” she gave you a sly smile “Why don’t you cast this spell off so we can practice the magic of cuddles?”
“Well, I could dispel my little wall, but that would spoil the fun, wouldn’t it?”

>>30240931
>The little Celestia rolled her eyes and chuckled “I can still teleport to your side of the barrier, you know?”
“Ah, ah, ah! You did promise that under no circumstance you would use that spell, remember? And this is my first lesson in royalty, a prince or princess never break their promises, oh, and don’t think on blasting the wall, please. You could cause a cave-in and… well, that would be pretty bad”
>The filly sat on the ground, crossed her front hooves and huffed as she poofed her cheeks ”Hm! Not fair!”
>You gently shrugged while you held a smug smirk
“This would be my second lesson, life can be unfair at times, we have to give our best and break through those hardships. Now if you excuse me…”
>You turned away from her
“I do have some royal business to take care of, but I promise that I won’t take too long”
>Heh, with that problem out of the way, you just needed to contact Discord and everything would-
>”Do our best, hm?” The little Celestia said with a mischievous grin “I think… I can do that”
>A chill ran down your spine when you heard those words, you slowly turned back, and saw that the little Celestia was smirking at you and her horn was shining with her golden aura.
“Miss Celestia… what are you doing?”
>”Exactly what you told me to do, my prince” She giggled as she… walked right through the darn shield! WHAT?! “I’m breaking through this hardship so I can get my reward… which is, of course, you!”
>Okay… as scared as you were, you had to give her something, that… that was absolutely awesome.
>That said…
“Aaaaaah!”
>It was time to run, yo! You didn’t care about anything else, you teleported to your lab and immediately, and reached the cabinet where the radios were.

>>30240939
>Dang! You didn’t have much time! You quickly set the radio to Discord’s frequency and yelled into it
“Discord, Discord! We have an emergency, mate! A big one! I need your chaotic butt here and pronto! Oh… and bring Eris too if you can… I seriously need all the help possible and you guys are my only hope!”
>And the response that you got, well… you heard a little cheesy tune coming from the radio followed by an almost robotic Discord’s voice.
>”You have called to Discord’s amazing chaotic line, if you are a yak and are looking for ballet lessons, please press one. If you called to know why your train collection was set on fire and cannot be put down, press two. If you are that pesky tax collector, you really are persistent, aren’t you? Well, I guess that someponies can’t get enough of my beautiful chaos … oh and if you are the little prince…”
>A little blue Discord appeared on top of the radio, it was a… hologram? It even had some cheap scan lines “I’m sorry but whatever problem you might have, will have to wait. Eris and I are in the middle of a wonderful picnic with our dear Fluttershy and…”
>”You know how I said that you were fast on your hooves? Well, I don’t know what ponies eat in the future, but I have never seen a pony to gallop THAT fast seriously, you could- Wooooow!”
> The little Celestia finally reached your lab, and just like with your room, she started to inspect everything “This place is A-M-A-Z-I-N-G! So this is how technology looks in the future, huh? I knew that it was going to be great but this… this is just… Psssh! Mind blowing…”
>The Discord hologram immediately turned to the little Celestia “Now, what do we have here?” and with a snap of his talons, the hologram disappeared, making Discord to appear inside the lab.
>The little Celestia started to flew around Discord, inspecting every single detail of him ”By Starswirl’s hairy nose! The future just gets crazier and crazier, like seriously, who is this guy? WHAT is this guy?”

>>30240947
>For just a second, Discord raised an eyebrow and grinned maliciously before giving the little Celestia a polite smile “Well, it seems like you are quite the curious filly, aren’t you? That is certainly a marvelous attitude to have, because you see, my dear.” He then gently booped the filly’s muzzle “Wondering about the oddities of life and the unknown is something that it’s almost lost in the youth of today.”
>The little Celestia covered her muzzle with her hooves and giggled as she continued to fly around Discord “You speak as weird as you look, mister….uuh… what was your name again?”
>”My dear, that is such an understatement” Discord snapped his talon, making a top hat to appear on his head, a rainbow-colored bow tie on his neck, and a golden cane on his paw “I do not only speak weird, I also act, think, eat, sleep and even breathe weird! Because you see, being weird is what I do, no! Being weird is what defines my very existence, for I am Discord, the spirit of chaos! And I shall not be brought down by the mundane chains of normalcy!”
>You let out a chuckle and rolled your eyes, then you put up a little smirk and wiggled your eyebrows at Discord.
“Oh, yeah, suuure, you are Discord, the mighty spirit of chaos and randomness… except when a certain Fluttershy is involved.”
>”That is a more than an unfair accusation, my pint-sized friend, especially when every time my lovable daughter comes to visit, you act quite mischievous and yet, aren’t you still the mighty prince of harmony?”
“Discord, you know darn well that is Eris the one who-“
>”Oh puh-lease! You should be above and beyond of petty excuses, my little prince. Remember that is your duty to guide with the example what would our little guest think if she saw you acting with such a poor and common behavior?”

>>30240966
>“And speaking of our lovable guest, pardon me for my manners, and allow me to introduce myself once more” Discord then took off his top hat and gave her a profound bow “My name is Discord, a draconequus of class and chaos, one could say that is classy chaos. And it’s such a pleasure to meet you, Miss…?”
>The little filly giggled and rolled her eyes “You guys are silly, but it’s super nice to meet you sir Discord, I have never seen a dracone-something, which is really something, considering that I live in the dark forest and that place is filled with all kinds of creatures, then again, I had never seen a Phoenix until this morning, so… ehm… sorry, I got a bit derailed. My name is Celestia, and again, it’s nice to meet you!”
>Discord snapped his talons, making his little outfit to disappear “Oh, what a wonderful name you have there, my dear, and my, oh my, this old draconequus is more than surprised by how eloquent you are proving to be... but going back to your name… hmmm… Celestia… it sounds powerful, elegant, magnificent, almost…” he then gave the filly a grin as he narrowed his eyes “Like royalty”
>The little Celestia let out a little squee of joy after hearing those words “You really think so?”
>”Why, of course!” Discord closed his eyes, raises his head in a regal manner and proudly hit his chest with his paw “It is clear for everypony that you are destined for greatness, my dear!” But tell me, I couldn’t help but to notice that you are also an alicorn. Very impressive indeed, not many ponies can achieve such feat.”
>… What was Discord doing? Hmmm… is he trying to gain the little Celestia’s trust? Well… it sounds reasonable and logical. Maybe it would be better if you stayed silent for a moment and see where things go.
>The little filly flapped her wings and tapped her horn “Yup! my little sister Luna and I are both like this, and she’s also super great! I bet she would love to meet you, sir Discord!”

>>30240985
>Discord chuckled maliciously as he tapped his talons and paw “Oh, so you have a younger sister too, that’s what I would call a wonderful surprise. I’m absolutely sure that your younger sister… Luna, was it? Of course, it was, I’m sure that the little Luna is also an amazing young lady just like her big sister.“
>”She totally is!” The little Celestia grinned and flapped her wings in joy “I bet that Luna would love to meet you too!”
>”And I’m sure of that too, but before we meet your wondrous little sister” With another boop on her muzzle, Discord then asked “Tell me, my dear. Would I be wrong in assuming that you have already met a certain purple alicorn?”
>”Oh…” The little Celestia scoffed “You mean that lame purple pony? Yeah, she tried to like, cast an evil spell on me and my sister, but we managed to free ourselves and my prince over there from her evilness! Then…” she rolled her eyes “Then she went crazy”
>Discord couldn’t hold a chuckle, a very disturbing chuckle “Oh, I’m sure, so sure that she did”
>”So, umm…” the filly rubbed her right leg with the left one “so like… why do you know my prince?”

>>30241001
>Discord stroked his white beard “Why do I know the ruler of the vast and magical kingdom of Equestria? Well, that is a very good question with an equally good answer.”
>Wait, how did he know about your temporary status?
>Discord eyed you for a second before addressing the little Celestia “You see, this draconequus that you have right in front of you is not only the amazing spirit of chaos, no, I also have the great honor and happiness of being Prince Anon’s legal guardian, or in more mundane, yet tender term… you could simply say that I’m his father!”
“WHAT?!”
>You finally got released from whatever Discord had cast on you. Your heart beating at a thousand miles per hour, cold sweat ran down your face.
>”Really?!” The little Celestia asked with excitement
>”Why the long face, my little prince?” Discord picked you up and rubbed his cheek against yours “Give a big hug to your Dadonequus, boyo!”

Holy shit that cliffhanger

Whelp that flying asshole hasn't showed up again after getting pelted so GG me.

>>30241024
Poor PhD can't catch a break. Well, I look forward to how Cherrywood reacts

>>30238783
>The three of you stare at the basement trap door.
>"Anon, are you absolutely sure you can handle this? I don't mean to sound harsh. But we cannot afford a mistake." Celestia warns
>After beating that Tantabus, you were sure you'd be fine. Besides, this was your fight too.
"Hey, don't sweat it Princess Celestia. I promise, I got this. And I have your sister, Discord, and my friends to thank"
>"Then Anon, before we go. I wish to test you through a special ritual. That should you succeed, you will be granted knowledge beyond anypony. Wisdom that will not only help you with this situation. But your future as well." Celestia says as she looks at you with a serious stare
>wut?
"You mean..a ritual..right now?! Uhh, I don't think we have the time...though, that does sound awesome."
>"Unfortunately, now is the only time I can do this until the next one hundred moons. You just so happen to have come at the perfect time, with your soul purged of it's doubt. The ritual itself will only take a minute. It is a rare opportunity that I'd suggest you take" Celestia explains
>...wuuut?
>Well, as sudden as this was. If it'd help. And fuck, being super smart or awakened or whatever you'd call it might be damned awesome. You might even get cool powers and..wait.
"Am I going to become an Alicorn? Because I thought that required like, something else. Fixing a spell or something?"
>"The rite of passage to Alicornhood varies from pony to pony. And is not easily reached. Although, it is possible that this ritual will cause a transformation within you that may in fact change you into an Alicorn."
>...woah
>Alicorn Prince Anon.
>...hehehehe, you'd be better than that fucking other guy.
"Well now, that sounds awesome. And, you say you can do that right now?"
>"Yes, but be warned. for if there's doubt in your heart. You will explode into a thousand pieces and be lost in the void of darkness" Celestia's tone became dark and serious
>....wut?

>>30245842
"....uhhh, what?! That's ridiculous! That's dangerous! Who would even agree to even try such a thing?"
>"Well, I suppose nopony. As it is rather dangerous. A shame really. I felt you worthy Anon, but perhaps I was wrong. But you are right to cast doubt, as you may not survive the process. Only the brave and dauntless, with no question in their heart, could survive such a process. Come, let us gather our thoughts and-"
"Woah wait wait!....I didn't say I wasn't interested. I did beat my own Tantabus. And I did help save a world. For reals. And from what I understand, beating that Tantabus kinda qualifies me for this upgrade you're suddenly offering"
>"So I assume, you wish to undertake the ritual?" Celestia asks
>You were sure you'd be fine. You felt as if you had no doubt in your heart. You sort of had to. or you'd explode.
"I'm ready!"
>Celestia had you sit forward facing her. Her horn lit up as she put her hoof on your forehead "Anon, as the princess of Equestria, I bestow upon you this wonderful gift. Do you accept?"
"Yep!"
>"Then close your eyes. And bask within your newfound knowledge and possible princehood."
>SHE SAID IT, SHE SAID PRINCEHOOD. BADASSSS!
>You do as she says, and wait.
>You could hear her humming. so far, you didn't feel any different.
>"Wow, this is so amazing." Thorax said as he observed
>Another moment passes, you wanted to open an eye. So...you did
"Umm, when is it going to-"
>"ANON NO! YOU RUINED THE RITUAL!" Celestia said in shock
"WHAT?! I ONLY JUST..WHAT?! A-AM..WHAT?! NO! I DON'T WANT TO EXP-"
>Suddenly, you hear a huge explosion. You fall to the ground, onto your back, shaking and yelling. Scared out of your mind.
"DSFSDSDFSFSDFdsfds...dsfsd...wait..."
>You look at your hooves, you wiggle your tail, then look back at your hooves.
"...Wait a second"
>Celestia starts giggling

>>30245968
>"Princess Celestia? W-what happened?" Thorax asked, confused, he was even worried. He thought you exploded too. until it turned out you were fine.
>Celestia took a moment to compose herself from her laughter as you gave her a hard and menacing stare.
"That's not funny..."
>"Oh, relax Anon. I was just playing with you. You weren't ever in any danger." Celestia said with a light hearted chuckle
>"Ummm..Princess Celestia, was that what a pony would call, a prank?" Thorax asked "It seemed kind of funny"
>"It is indeed. I thought it'd be alright to lift the mood. Considering what we are about to do. It's good to be in better spirits so your Changeling brethren will feel more at ease. If they feel we are serious and too determined. They might feel a need to be defensive and doubtful." Celestia explains with a smile as she uses her magic to sit you back up
>.....How did you even fall for something like that?
"So, there's totally no ascension or ultimate knowledge or anything?"
>"No, you're not taking it too hard. Are you Anon? I thought you'd appreciate that kind of joke." Celestia gave you a cocky grin "It's certainly no creepy clown. But, I thought it'd work well enough"
>....ohhh, that kind of takes you back. She was talking about when you used a Pennywise Celestia to scare the shit out of Twilight.
>It made you chuckle. She really did get you good. Maybe remembering Nightmare Night is what softened the blow. But it suddenly felt funnier when she mentioned "It".
"Ok Celestia, ya got me good. Heh, so then. What now?"
>"Well, are we all ready? Anon, are you prepared?" She asks
"I am. In fact..."
>You explain to Celestia that you'd like to step up first with just her. To try to reason with Chrysalis before Thorax's attempt. If she sees Thorax, she'd probably lose her shit and not listen at all. You assured her, if you failed. You wouldn't interfere.
>She agrees.

>>30246056
>It was time. Thorax hung back as you and Celestia went down into the depths of the cavernous basement.
>Step by step. You prepped yourself. You wouldn't fall for Chrysalis's tricks.
>And you'd make sure to try your best
>You could hear the changelings buzzing about
>You could hear Chrysalis, humming a sweet little song.
>You whispered to yourself
"C'mon Anon. You can do this.For sure"
>As you whispered. Celestia put her wing over you. You had gotten comfortable with this kind of affection from Fluttershy. Even from Celestia, it calmed your nerves.
>You looked up at her and whispered
"..thanks"
>She smiles and nods.
>When you both reached the main chamber. Thorax stood back at the stairs as you both approached Chrysalis. Who was busy cleaning her car.
>The changelings around her began to hiss.
>"Silence! I'm concentrating on this spot. Who would have thought cave grime would be hard to scrape off. It's a good thing this car is invincible or I'd be...." Chrysalis stops
>She felt a strong presence.
>a harmonic one
>She started cackling as she dropped her rag. "Oh no. Anon, you didn't. You can't be serious"
>Chrysalis turned to face the both of you with a cruel smirk. "Ohoho! But you did. Well well well, If it isn't Princess Celestia herself. In my lair no less. I have to admit Anon, this must be your most desperate attempt yet. But no matter, I was thinking of having some royal cuisine."
>Some of the changelings began to gather around Chrysalis. Ready for a feast.
>Celestia put up a barrier, as she looked at Chrysalis with disgust. "I would recommend you control your horde. This barrier will protect me from your ability to feed. And I know about Discord's barrier, you can do me no harm."
>Chrysalis chuckled at those words "Suit yourself. But if that's how you're going to be, then I don't even see why you're here. Anon, this was pathetic. Send the little princess home so we can upgrade my car"
"No"

>>30246102
>Chrysalis stopped "No?" Chrysalis chuckled again, this time annoyed "Why no? I'm letting her go. You're obviously not going to school. And I thought it'd be fun to make this into a real murder machine. Suitable..." Chrysalis brought her eyes back to Celestia "For crushing those putrid ponies"
>Celestia stands firm. She doesn't even twitch at those words.
"Chrysalis, listen to me for once. As your friend. I'm trying to help you. There's no future for you if you don't reform now. Chrysalis, Celestia is here because this is your final moments. I don't know what will happen if you don't agree. But whatever it is, I don't want to lose you. Think about it. Is all this worth it? At this point. Any plan you try to pull off is destined to fail. And if you failed too hard. You might end up losing everything. But when you're with me? You laugh, you have fun, heck, you enjoy the films I show you. Something nopony else would. And we both have fun watching them too. Doesn't that mean anything to you? We don't need to conquer the ponies. What even is the point? We could live among them and STILL enjoy everything we like to do together. I mean.."
>You point to the car
"Wouldn't you like to take a road trip? Me and you, into the distant horizon? We could drive through all sorts of places at max speed. Wind in our manes. It'll be fun! Chrysalis...please. I'm your friend. I know you care. You know it'd be lonely even if you did win. So come on.."
>You give her a warming smile
"Let's give ponies a chance, huh?"
>Chrysalis just looks down at you with disgust "....I'll have to punish you for that later. I could feel burning bile within my throat."
>......
>You look down, then gave her a more determined. yet broken look.

"Chrysalis, I'm serious! You won't like what happens next. I swear! You're out of my hooves if you don't give in. I'm trying to save you!"
>Chrysalis points at Celestia "What? From her? Ha! Let her send us to Tartarus. We'd be free soon enough. If Tirek could do it, so can we. And then we'd be free to do as we please." Chrysalis then looked at Celestia and poked at her barrier "That's right Celestia, no matter WHAT you do. Whether you leave us here or banish us. We will always come back! HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!" Chrysalis started cackling as her changelings joined her.
>You looked at Celestia, who looked back at you.
>There was nothing more you could do.
>You tried.
"I'm sorry Chrysalis. Just know, that I still consider you a friend."
>You started to back off, eyeing her.
>She just looked at you and rolled her eyes "Ever so melodramatic. Anon, just shut up and get your butt over here. We could see if we could make Celestia the first instance of Equestrian roadkill"
>You don't respond.
>".....Hmph. You're no fun." Chrysalis turns away. No longer interested.
>"Thorax...It is your time. I shall use my magic to protect you. So please, do not be afraid to speak your mind." Celestia calls Thorax out, and as he comes down the stairs, a golden barrier begins to surround him.
>Chrysalis stops, but she doesn't turn around "How interesting" She says with an unpleasant, and passively angry tone "You're alive" Chrysalis then shifts her eyes towards you "Anon, you've been planning this whole thing for awhile then. Bringing the traitor here? And tricking the captain? I don't think he'd like that very much. I...don't like it very much."
>You just stand there, silent. It wasn't your time anymore.
>"SAY SOMETHING! DON'T IGNORE ME! HOW DARE YOU BRING THIS SNIVELING, TRAITOROUS, DISGUSTING LITTLE WASTE OF SPACE HERE!" Chrysalis stomps up to you, furious "HOW DARE YOU BETRAY MY TRUST. YOU OWED THIS MISSION TO ME ANON. IT WAS NOT YOUR RIGHT TO LET HIM LIVE!"

>>30246175
>Still you say nothing.
>But that reaction.
>"Queen Chrysalis, that's a rather interesting reaction. What does it matter to you if Thorax lives or not" Celestia asks, with some smug in her voice.
>"SHUT UP! you insolent little...Very well." Chrysalis points to the exit. a wall of changelings forming around it. Hissing. "I won't let anypony leave. And then soon. We'll have our feast. And Anon, you can watch. That's your punishment"
>"Thorax, now is the time. Do not be afraid. say what it is in your heart." Celestia calls to him
>Thorax looked around at his siblings. He could feel their hunger. Their suffering. He hated it.
>He didn't like it.
>Knowing what it was to starve, to not know what love,friendship, and caring truly was until he met you,Celestia,Luna, Scrappy, and everyone else.
>He knew he had to save them. To bring the word of friendship to them.
>He started to hover upwards. and started to speak. "My fellow siblings. Please listen, please. I know you're all hungry. And wish to feast on me and the princess. But I also know that in a few hours, you'll all be hungry again. I know that you've been locked up here for a long time now. Only managing to feed off some sort of orb that doesn't have a lot of love in it. But that's just it. Why do we have to steal love? why do we have to eat so much of it? Why? Aren't you all tired of it? Starving everyday until your next meal? I got tired of it. I got tired of how lonely it was. How painful it was. We don't even love each other, we only serve to further the queen's evil plots. Well, I for one, didn't want to do it anymore..."
>"SHUT UP!" Chrysalis went up , her horn aglow, she was going to try to at least destroy Celestia's barrier.
>You quickly put on your horn. And shackled Chrysalis in chains.
>It was painful to do. When she struggled, and looked at you with rage. You could only look back at her with silent sorrow.

>>30246240
>"My queen!"
>"What is he talking about? what he's saying we already know. We must feed!"
>"the pain will go away once we feed once more!"
>"Being hungry stinks!"
"Keep going Thorax! Keep going!"
>Thorax could see the changelings angrily converging. She mustered up more courage. and continued. "Listen to me my brothers and sisters! When I left on my own! I found wonderful friends in Princess Celestia and Princess Luna. They taught me so much. They taught me to love and cherish life,friends, strangers, everything!"
>"who cares?"
>"Ponies stink!"
>"what have they ever done for us but drive us away!"
>"Ponies...they aren't as bad as you think! They only hate us because we attack and hurt them. And steal their love! Well, I for one am sick of it! And I wanted to be more than a changeling who attacks others. Who steals. who plots. Now? I have friends, I care about them, I love them. And I feel great about it everyday. So much so...that I don't need to feed anymore. I always feel nice, never hungry. Everytime I do a good deed, or even compliment Princess Celestia's morning breakfast or Princess Luna's lavender to help us dream sweeter dreams. It all makes me feel happy and good every second of the day. And I couldn't keep it to myself. I didn't want to. I wanted to share it with all my siblings. I don't want you all to suffer. I want you all to be happy. To live among ponies in peace like I have. Not suffer here, imprisoned like we we're terrible beings. We're not. We were never meant to be."
>you could feel through your horn that Chrysalis was angrily struggling.
>.....You couldn't let her go. She had her chance.

>>30246264
>"You don't need to feed anymore?"
>"You're always full?"
>"I...don't want to be hungry anymore too..."
>"I didn't even know we could do that."
>"I....well..erm..I hate being down here anyway. We can't leave!"
>"...I....I wouldn't mind learning to love. I..think it could be neat"
>"Yeah, it could be neat!"
>"I want a friend! I'm sick of talking to rocks all day!"
>"I'M SICK OF CLEANING THAT STUPID CAR!"
>"Ponies rule!"
>"My fellow siblings! I don't want you to suffer anymore. Please, drop your hate. don't loathe ponies anymore. They can help us! We can live with them, among them, and we can work together..and...a-and..uh?!" Thorax started to shine, his body began to be enveloped in a crazy light.
"...HOLY CRAP! THORAX!?"
>FUCK, HE WAS GONNA EXPLODE!
"Don't worry buddy! I-I'll..."
>But it was too late. But not in a bad sense.
>Thorax had reemerged as a green, purple eyed, orange antlered bug things that was huge as fuck. About as big as Chrysalis.
"Thorax?...that you buddy?"
>Thorax was looking at himself. He changed. he felt even better. happier than before.
>And it seemed to be affecting the other changelings. they looked at him with awe. And seemed to have gained some sort of understanding. because they could feel his love. And how fulfilling it was. And they wanted some of that.
>And one by one, two by two, and then by the bunches. they all began to transform.
>....shit. Really? It was that easy?! how long has these guys been alive again?! IT WAS THAT EASY?!
"...christ.."
>Suddenly, with the last of the transformations. There's a huge burst of harmonic energy.
>So much full of harmony. That your horn fizzles out, releasing Chrysalis from her chains as she is blown back by the force of the energy.
>You, Thorax, and Celestia look on. You could practically feel the good vibes they were giving out. It was like, the opposite of the feeling of being drained. It was like they were making everyone in the room feel better.
"Woah..."
