>You know what? >Fuck ponies. >Fuck them in their stupid horse faces. >Fuck their backwards-ass "herd" bullshit. >Just..... >.... >Just fuck them, man. >You are Anon. >You've been replaced. >Twilight Sparkle. >Excuse you; PRINCESS Twilight Sparkle. >The two of you had been close ever since you violently burst into existence in Applejack's cellar. >You'd been best friends for months and months and months. >For the last year, you'd been "special someponies". >Twilight wanted to include a bunch of her friends in with the two of you, but you thought that shit was WEIRD. >She SAID she understood. >She SAID that if her colt was happy, then SHE was happy. >Said that sometimes you have to make sacrifices to make a relationship work. >.... >Well, guess what was her most recent sacrifice? >Yup, it was you. >The minute she was gifted with those ugly-ass wings, she had been given access to the "Royal Herd". >You were dropped the second that something better came up. >"Why don't you just find another mare, Anonymous?", she said. >"You're attractive enough, so it isn't as though you'll be on the market for long," she reasoned. >"C'mon, Anonymous, don't be all huffy. Here's some bits; why don't you go on a shopping spr-Ow!" she cried as a bag full of heavy gold hit her square in the face. >Superior human biology, you cunt! >No other species can throw shit accurately like a human can. >So here you are, drinking your troubles away in your basement. >Lucky for you, you'd managed to strike a deal with PRINCESS Twilight Sparkle before you'd beaned her in the eye with her dirty money. >Normally you'd need a mare's signature on a property deed, but PRINCESS Twilight Sparkle had been "gentlemarely" and "generous" enough to abuse her royal powers and make an illegal exception for you. >She'd also paid off what little money you owed on your shitty fucking cabin, meaning that you could sit and drink all day in your dark room and never pay a single bit for your property. >You thought that with the weird "matriarchy" thing this ponyland had going on, you'd have a hard time finding sympathetic faces after this whole ordeal. >Turns out that PRINCESS Twilight Sparkle is socially-retarded as fuck, and nopony thinks that what she pulled on you was cool. >Best part is, she's absolutely confused as to why Rarity and Rainbow Dash won't even talk to her any more. >Rainbow Dash is just pissed at the PRINCESS out of principle, but Rarity is your drinking buddy now. >Drinking buddy-slash-crying pillow, because you have emotions too, dammit! >You're allowed to hurt! >Especially when you've been drinking. ----------------------------------- >"Honestly, I simply cannot believe how boorish Twilight is acting towards you, Anonymous." >Rarity takes another dainty sip of her drink (horsewhiskey on the rocks) as she leans up into you. >You sigh and look around for your bottle of horserum, only to find it empty. >Some fucker stole your liquor while you weren't looking! >Yer gonna... yer gonna get that asshole. >Just you wait. >Rarity pokes you in the chest with her hoof, spilling her drink onto your shirt and making a mess of your carpet. >"You know what you need, Darling?" >What. >What do you need. >"You need a well-raised mare, Anonymous. Somepony who won't dump you the minute something better comes around. And you know why I wouldn't do that?" >Why. >Tell you, dammit! >"Because I can't imagine anypony better than you." >Shit, son. Any smoother and it'd be like that once episode of The Magic Schoolbus where all the kids dicked around on a weird surface that had literally no friction. >You know what? Maybe breaking up with Twilight wasn't actually all that bad. You think you've found somepony even better.
