>High noon of being the filly in Equestria >It's been a while since you've started a train of thought like that, so today must be important >And indeed it is, as you've finally figured out how to remove the purple stopgap between you and your favorite party amalgamation >Seriously, the quesadillas incident wasn't that bad >Okay, it was >But it was worth it >Your train of thought is interrupted by slamming hornfirst into Twiggle's crystal eyesore >Right, the plan >You knock a little tune into the front door >It's a little amazing how many knocking frequencies you can hit with a crystal door >The door opens to see the worlds most disappointing looking dragon >"Hey Nonny. Twi's busy with a project right now." "An exploding project or a boring, very interruptible project?" >"I don't think it'll explode, but you should wait-" >That's all you needed to hear >You push past the pathetic purple lizard >You'll probably apologize later, you want to be enough in his good graces to continue playing O&O with the boys later "TWILIGHT! I'VE COME TO BARGAIN!" >You hear some semi-distant grumbling, and after a couple minutes the purple pony princess makes her appearance >"Hi Nonny, what brings you here?" >Her words say friendly, her tone says "You were supposed to not let her in today, spike" "I've come to make a deal, Twilight. One that we'll both like." >Her eyes narrow >Shit, should've known dropping the hated nicknames would rouse suspicion "So by your standards, I am a perfectly normal, not at all unusual unicorn filly. But I do know someone who is none of those things and very interesting to study for you. I could convince them to let you do magic on him again if you let me talk to Discord again." >"...no. The two of you are a large threat to natural harmony. And there's no way you could possibly convince Anon to let me study him again, you of all ponies should know that." "And what if I already convinced him of this change and have the proof of three very good, harmonious friends that I can restrain myself from causing chaos untold with Discord's help?" >Seriously, that sleepover paid off in spades, Sweetie and Scoots trust you way more than they should >Downside is that Bloom's more suspicious of your intentions, but not enough to cause a rift >You'll win her over eventually >"...considering all the possibilities of all that and the probability of everything being true... I'm willing to go along with your deal here, if you bring Anon here and have him outright tell me he is ready to be studied again." >Shit, she was monologuing while you were lost in your own self-praising thoughts >That might've had a detail you could've exploited >Ah well, better claim the deal before she realizes the painfully obvious truth of Discord + Nonny being a terrible combination for anything nearby "Thanks Twilight! I'll bring him over right now!" >You gallop at full speed back to your house >There is no way this could backfire >Another day of prepping some slow-cooked goodness for dinner >Also be the one, the only, the legendary Anonymous >Today's been a great day >Scratch that, it's been a great two weeks! >Nonny hasn't caused any trouble since the sleepover! >She even went a full day without calling you a faggot! >You're gonna surprise her with some trout tomorrow >Yeah, you're feeling that upbeat about all this >Think of the devil, you can see your little green pony-clone running towards the front door >WHACK! >... "You know, you should watch where you're going!" >That door's thin enough that you know she can hear you yelling >The door opens, revealing Nonny rubbing her horn >"No time for watching where I'm going faggot, I'm playing Purple like a fiddle and I need your help." >There goes the hopes for two days in a row "As much as I love messing with Twi, my heart's not really in it since last time." >Honestly, it wasn't that bad >Yes it was >"Good, because that's part of the reason I'm doing what I'm doing - if we play things right she'll let us hang around Discord again." >That grabs your attention "Explain, slowly." >"No time for slow, explain in ook monkey brain. You say yes to Twiggy magic and then she tell Flutterbutter that Discord can hang with us again." >This is a fucking shit plan >But it's technically YOUR fucking shit plan >Plus you kind of miss someone who drank the glass instead of the milk floating around at random intervals "I don't think-" >"You're not supposed to think, you're supposed to get moving to that crystal monster in the distance." >Time to relent, you guess "Alright, alright, but if this goes bad you're going to be the one cleaning the bathrooms from now on." >...That's the last thing you remember. >You start to wake up on what feels like a soft bed >Opening your eyes, you see that it's a fucking massive bed >"Twilight, how the FUCK did you manage that from a 'simple scanning spell'?! I'm not even mad, just impressed!" >Wait, you didn't say that >But that's your voice... >Ah shit, she did it again, didn't she? "Twiggles, I swear if I look in a mirror and see that I'm Nonny now, I'm gonna learn magic then throw you." >Yup, sounds like Nonny >Should've predicted this could've ended up being some body-switching shenanigans >"Actually, you're not me either." >That's Nonny's voice too, but you didn't say that >"Your name's 'Green' now, and to foil your throwing dreams, you're a pegasus." Anon tells you >"No, that wasn't supposed to happen! This is getting out of hoof, now there are two of them!" >You, Anon, and Nonny burst into laughter >"What? What's so funny about this?" >"Don't worry about it. I might tell you later." Nonny replies, after catching her breath "Now, about meeting with Discord..." >Twilight looks like she's on the verge of a breakdown of frustration >"Urgh, I'll talk with Fluttershy. And I guess Rainbow too, you'll need flying lessons." Twiggles groans >None of you are ever gonna let her live this down.
