  1. >>Celestia's light broke through the veil laid by Luna the night before
  2. >>You pitied Luna
  3. >>You understood her
  4. >>That no matter how hard you worked...
  5. >>The way of the cosmos would just overrule you
  6. >>That's what seemed to happen in your case
  7. >>If, indeed, the legacy of Lyra as a human WAS ordained by the heavenly bodies of Equestria and >>Earth, then you suppose you were pretty stupid to try and stop it
  8. >>You sigh through your muzzle
  9. >>Still, though
  10. >>What does the future hold for you?
  11. >>Your body will be gone within the hour
  12. >>You will never again be human
  13. >>As much of a human as you were, anyway
  14. >>Really, you were more a shell than anything
  15. >>Celestia made sure of that
  16. >>But at least it was something
  17. >>Now, you're a human spirit stuck in a pony body
  18. >>Fuck, now you sound like Lyra
  19. >>You sigh through your vented muzzle again
  20. >>Nothing but forlorn hope n your cold stare off into nothingness
  21. >>But you've been greedy, too
  22. >>This wasn't just about you
  23. >>It mostly was
  24. >>But not all
  25. >>It was also about BonBon
  26.  
  27. >>That psychotic wrecking ball of a butch
  28. >>She still thinks you're Lyra
  29. >>Alas, her true love will soon exit this world, along with everything you had left
  30. >>And you will wither away, alone
  31. >>BonBon will do the same
  32. >>And the world will keep on spinning
  33. >>Or whatever this planetoid does
  34.  
  35. >>There is a rustling
  36. >>Oh, yes, definitely a rustling
  37. >>You put it off as construction work taking place outside
  38. >>Sounds like a chisel
  39. >>But it's going way too fast to be a hand chisel
  40. >>What were those machines from your world?
  41. >>Jackhammers
  42. >>But Equestria doesn't have jackhammers, does it?
  43. >>Hm. You put it out of your mind
  44. >>Except... it's getting louder
  45. >>And... it's coming from under you?
  46. >>There's a break in the ground next to you
  47. >>It causes you to jump
  48. >>Your eyes go wide
  49. >>The break expands
  50. >>Suddenly, a hard hat emerges from the ground
  51. >>And under it is a pink globe
  52. >>Two large, light blue eyes crank around to meet your gaze
  53. >>The mystery mare smiles, and throws her hat off to reveal none other than...
  54. >>“Hi Anon!”
  55. >>Pinkie Pie
  56.  
  57. >>You breathe a sigh of relief as the Pink dynamo unfastens your muzzle
  58. >>You feel so good to be out of that restricting leather and iron, and out of the straight jacket
  59. Pinkie... is that really you?
  60. >>“Yep! Just me, no one else!”
  61. >>She gives you a huge grin
  62. But how did you know I was Anon?
  63. >>She races her speech, communicating physically as much as verbally
  64. >>“Oh! That was easy! When you said you were going home that one night at Sugar Cube Corner... remember that? At Sugarcube Corner? Huh?”
  65. Yes.
  66. >>“Well I had a twitch! And a twitch is never good! See, a twitch in my tail means...”
  67. >>She drones on and on
  68. Pinkie!
  69. >>“Oh, sorry! But then also, I heard that you were leaving Equestria!”
  70. >>She acts out a huge gasp, her hooves squeezing her cheeks
  71. >>Pinkie speaks at a million miles a second
  72. >>“So then we threw a party, and you CAME!”
  73. >>She put her hooves on the ground and leaned in to you, causing you to recoil
  74. >>“But that's impossible, because you NEVER come to my parties, much less ASK for one! So I overheard Twilight talking about an incident in the library, and then Applejack and Rainbow said...”
  75. >>But this one time, you found yourself so thankful for Pinkie Pie's intervention and her ability to deduce your situation, that you couldn't bring yourself to yell at her to stop
  76. >>You were just... happy
  77. >>Something you haven't been in a few days
  78. >>You smiled at her
  79. >>She stopped, looked at you
  80. >>She noted your smile
  81. >>She looked at you suspiciously
  82. >>“...Are you sure you're anon?”
  83.  
  84. >>You frowned
  85. >>“Just kidding! Hehehaha~!”
  86. >>You joined her in an infectious chuckle, though you were much more reserved about it
  87. >>You tapped a hoof against her shoulder
  88. >>Normally you don't like to make contact with other people like that
  89. >>But suddenly, you realized
  90. >>You have less than an hour left!
  91. >>You leaped up to your hooves
  92. Pinkie! Do you know where the others are?!
  93. >>“Well, DUH! That's what I've been trying to tell you!”
  94. >>Your lids half close, waiting for her to go on
  95. >>“They're over at the library!”
  96. Great! Awesome!
  97. Let's go, we don't have a lot of time.
  98. >>You get ready to scramble down the tunnel when you stop for a second, prop yourself back up, and look to Pinkie Pie
  99. >>She seems stumped by your lack of action and cants her head
  100. Thank you.
  101. >>You say
  102. For being such a good friend.
  103. >>She always tries to look out for you when you're around
  104. >>She got you that job at the corner store
  105. >>And she tries earnestly to learn more about you
  106. >>And after all this time, you've never really told her how much you appreciated it all
  107. >>Just yelled at her, and tried to push her away
  108. >>She smiled
  109. >>“You're welcome~!”
  110. >>You looked down in the hole and began your journey
  111. >>Time to force this thing to a conclusion
