  12. >There's even a fucking vore general
  13. >But you enjoy the board anyway, for some dumb reason
  14. >Said reason being the waifu threads
  15. >You've long since abandoned the manestream six
  16. >Not that it was a choice, really
  17. >No, your attentions have been captured by the magnetic magician mare, Trixie
  18. >Maybe you're developing - or had always had - a femdom fetish, or something
  19. >Though...she's cute
  20. >You can't put your finger on just what appeals to you about her, but trying just feels pointless
  21. >Something about not questioning the good things that come your way, you suppose
  22. >Today, you've been rewatching mlp for fun and profit - you managed to talk your professor into giving you some extra credit if you could write a paper on the thoughts, feelings and motivations of all the characters with a speaking role in the show
  23. >You're kind of surprised you managed to talk him into it, but hey, gift horses
  24. >But binge-watching is pretty exhausting
  25. >So Destiny's been a welcome distraction
  26. >People call it Call of HaloLands, but they seem to forget that some actually enjoy CoD, Halo and Borderlands
  27. >Even non-fratboys
  28. >Shock of all shocks, right
  29. >Anywho
  30. >After the fifth 'just one more', you finally tear yourself from the screen and turn off the console
  31. >It's late
  32. >Too tired to go all the way to your bed
  33. >So you just lay down on the couch
  34. >You watched up to the end of Season 3 today, and it just seemed so messed up that Sombra exploded
  35. >Like, fucking jesus
  36. >But what caught your attention was - well, several things, actually
  37. >That fucking mirror pool and the existential implications, for example
  38. >The return of Trixe, actually, was interesting
  39. >How'd she acquire the alicorn amu- well, okay, the show showed that, but still
  40. >It's getting hard to think straight
  41. >You yawn loudly
  42. "Trixie a best pony" you mutter
  43. >and with that, sleep overtakes you
  44.  
  45. ***********************************************
  46.  
  47. >Your heart is beating
  48. >Your eyes are stinging
  49. >Your breath is ragged
  50. >The night is dark (and full of terrors, you suppose)
  51. >You're not sure where you are
  52. >You just know that it's not Ponyville
  53. >And right now, that's the most important thing
  54. >Even if you miss the reassuring glow of lanterns from Ponie's windows
  55. >You slow down, going into a speedy trot rather than full gallop
  56. >Slowly but surely your eyes are adjusting to the darkness
  57. >Today had been a horrid day for the Great and Powerful Trixie
  58. >In fact, Trixie felt neither Great nor Powerful right now
  59. >No, right now, it was only you, Trixie Lulamoon
  60. >The pony, not the persona
  61. >That had shattered into a thousand pieces
  62. >Along with your home and stage
  63. >You let out a heavy sigh and use your magic to wipe your red, puffy eyes dry
  64. >Who were you trying to kid
  65. >Even if you'd lost everything, there'd still be the Great and Powerful Trixie
  66. >Partly because the show must go on
  67. >And partly because being Great and Powerful was rather comforting
  68. >While it seemed to put some ponies off, it also seemed to inspire awe and loyalty from others
  69. >Like those two dopey unicorn colts in Ponyville
  70. >Well, they were a dopey pair of numbnuts, but they were rather sweet...
  71. >You feel your eyes sting a bit again, but hold back the tears
  72. >Celestia knows you've cried enough today
  73. >But...they were the closest things you've had to friends in a long while
  74. >It..felt good to be admired
  75. >Even if it was the act that received praise, not the pony behind it
  76. >But then, you ought to be used to it by now, being a professional magician and showmare
  77. >You push the thoughts from your mind as you come upon a clearing
  78. >You notice a farmhouse, a silo, and most hearteningly of all, a light
  79. >Even just the thought of what you're about to do makes your pride hurt
  80. >The pain cuts right into the core of your very being
  81. >You suspect you'd choose being stepped on by an Ursa minor would be preferable, that whole 'gruesome death' business notwithstanding
  82. >But for now you decide to swallow your pride
  83. >You take a deep breath, then exhale and approach the farmhouse
  84. >Looking around to see what sort of farm it is, you don't see anything one could farm here
  85.  
  86. *********************************************
  87.  
  88. >The night passed peacefully, bar the rumbling of thunder and the crack of the occasional lightning
  89. >Anon slept deep, stirring once or twice
  90. >However, as dawn approached, an eerie purple mist coalesced into being seemingly from the aether
  91. >Slowly but methodically it enveloped Anon
  92. >The lazy bastard still slept through it
  93. >Around him, time warped and space bent
  94. >Suddenly, he was weightless
  95. >Then gravity kicked in and he fell
  96. >That woke him up
  97. >Just in time to give the ground a big, sloppy kiss
