Yes, of course we have those, the setting is incohesive. >Call Rarity and see what she's doing. >"Running three boutiques, darling!" >Say yeah, bitch, but are you doing anything? >"Actually, no. Running these boutiques don't require any of my time, so I'm doing nothing. Are we having an adventure?" >Invite Rarity to come out and be 2nd player in Street Fighter. It's just straight up Street Fighter. Not pony Street Fighter or anything. I played it a bit when I was a human in high school. >Decide to call Rainbow Dash, ask her what she's doing. >"I'm a Wonderbolt! Duh!" >Say I know, but I mean what are you doing. >"Oh. Nothing. Sleeping like always." >Invite Dash out for drinks. She says she'll be here soon. >Rarity arrives on a personal leer jet made out of cookies. I forget for a minute that my setting is a jarbled mess and ask where she found a leer jet. >"It's fine, darling, it's made of cookies!" >Shrug. It doesn't fucking matter anymore. >Check 4chan on my pony mobile phone. I had a phone when I was a high school student. Anons are wondering why we don't write greens about the pony universe anymore. >Sigh. Put away my phone. Go out to dinner at a franchise chain that sells hay burgers. !highlight![Fluttershy] >Be Fluttershy. >Wake up in the morning next to Discord >Didn't sleep with him. He's just here sometimes. We actually have nothing in common. >We have tea, and then he fucks off into the ether for another twenty episodes. >I think about asking him what he does when he's not my bitch, but then decide against it. Maybe the least predictable thing a god of chaos could do is "nothing". >Decide to go out and buy some apples. Starlight Glimmer is here. Also a reformed villain. >Say hi. Ask what she's up to. >"Working on a friendship report," she replies. >Come to next Thursday covered in honey. My head is shaved and I have a tattoo of a bull having missionary sex with a bear. >Glimmer starts apologizing profusely, saying something about friendship reports and learning a lesson and Twilight Sparkle. >Tell her she's doing great and she's come a long way! Besides, this is a really neat tattoo and I can't wait to hang out again. >Go home. Find Tirek watering my begonias. >Ask him what he's doing here. >"Oh, I reformed off screen," he explains, "Now I only suck magic out of ponies once every twenty to forty episodes, when we can learn a lesson from it." >Sigh. Go inside to get some ice cream. Instead find Discord in my freezer running a miniature ice cream stand. Apparently this is what he does when he's not my bitch. He explains that business tends to be pretty slow. >Order a scoop of ice cream, then lay down because I have a headache. !highlight![Applejack] >Be Applejack >For all these seasons I have been the North Star >Well, almost. Somehow I forgot a lot about farming. A wooden fence broke yesterday and I spent four hours weaving a basket to patch the hole. >Twilight came out and explained to me that I was doing it wrong. I should fix a wooden fence with wood! >I knew this. I don't know why I forgot. I worry that I forgot but I'm too nervous to admit what happened so I tell Twilight I've been doing it that way for years and I appreciate her help. >Speaking of Twilight, her castle blocks the sun during certain parts of the day and casts a long shadow over the whole farm. I worry about that, but it doesn't seem to matter. >In fact I spend a lot of time away from the farm and nothing bad ever seems to happen. >Decide to test it out. Take a vacation out to Apaloosa and spend some time with my cousin, just catching up. >Get back a month later. Nothing has changed. Mac had no trouble by himself. Ran the entire farm alone. >Suddenly, some kind of magical earthworm attacks the farm! >Resolve it with the help of friends in twenty minutes. >Decide I won't do any work on the farm now, to see what happens. Convince Mac and Granny not to work either. >A month passes. Everything is fine. >Two months. No changes. >Three, four, six. Harvest time comes, and the harvest is exactly the same as it was last year. >I get called away to Crystal Kingdom for some kind of magical apocalypse scenario. >Come back and apples are all harvested. Mac didn't do it, Applebloom didn't do it, Granny didn't do it. Nobody knows what happens. >Begin to worry the farm has come to life and is draining our minds away to work itself. >Can't prove it to anyone. >All I do is wait here on the farm, doing nothing, and I worry. Good lord. !highlight![Rainbow Dash] >Be Rainbow Dash >Finally achieved life-long dream! Made it into the Wonderbolts! >They never call me into practice. The other ponies work on their routine from sun up to sun down, but I never go in. They never ask me to go in. >They do ask me to perform in shows, though. I never know the routines. I didn't practice any. They say it's fine. >Get upset. Decide that if they don't care, then I'll do my own routine! >My changes backfire. I cause two ponies to collide in mid air. One pony breaks a neck and will never walk again. >Spitfire tells me it happens to the best of us. She puts me on probation and makes me clean the stands again. >Feel guilty, so I blow off probation. Go to see the Wonderbolt in the hospital. He tells me it's fine because I'm so cool. >Don't know how to feel. It wasn't cool. I don't know what I did to earn that respect. >Worried, I forget I'm supposed to be cleaning. >Nobody says anything. Nobody cares. >The injury gets in the news. Sports casters forgive me, saying the others must not have practiced enough to keep up with the Element of Loyalty. >Don't understand. Watching the replay, I was all over the place. It was clearly my fault. >Don't feel cool. Don't feel cool at all. >Next day, pony comes by and asks me to sign like a hundred autographs. Everyone still loves me. Kids look up to me. Want to be like me. >They say I'm the coolest. >Find out the other pony in the accident broke his wing. He'll fly again, but now he's slow. Used to be the fastest Wonderbolt on the team after me. >He says it's cool. >Wonderbolts start to practice again. Twilight tells me I need to go to the Crystal Kingdom. >Wonderbolts say it's cool. >We go to the Crystal Kingdom. Shining Armor tells us a lot of information about an apocalypse scenario. Starlight Glimmer resolves it. The whole thing was... boring. Barely remember any of it. >Another show comes up. They want me in it again. >Scared. Say I can't. They say it's cool. I'm still a Wonderbolt. !highlight![Rarity] >Be Rarity >Running three boutiques now. Each one a smash hit >Not finding myself stretched thin at all. Have plenty of time for everything except on very, very specific occasions >With plenty of free time and all this money, decide to open a fourth boutique in Trottingham! >Instant smash hit! Another success! >Still not stretched thin. Decide to open another boutique in Las Pegasus. >Smash hit! Rarity is unstoppable >Still not too busy. >Begin to realize how busy I'm not, which is strange. I always strive to be busy. >Design new clothes and send them out. They all do well. Everyone loves every design. >Feel happy, but perplexed. Realize that I don't understand my success. Art is subjective but... a master must know something of what makes her work special. >Start trying different things. Different types of stones, different patterns. Each dress is equally successful. I can't discern any meaning behind it. >Languish. >Is it my brand? My name that sells now? Has the quality of my work lost meaning? >Don't release new dresses for weeks. Profits remain exactly the same. >Peculiar. >Decide to open another small boutique in Ponyville. >Smash hit. Like all the others. >Baffled. >Boutique opens in Apaloosa. Smash hit. >I'm not even designing dresses anymore. >Called away to Crystal Empire for apocalypse scenario. Resolved by Starlight Glimmer - harrowing but inconsequential. Find time to open a boutique in the Crystal Empire. >Smash hit. >Languish again. >Nothing matters. There is no measure of my quality. >As I waste away, doing nothing, I become the wealthiest pony in Ponyville. >How can achieving a dream feel... so much like a dream? !highlight![Pinkie] >Be Pinkie pie! >Throw a party! >Party is great! Best day ever! >Throw a party! >Party is awesome! Best day ever! >Throw a party! >Everyone loves party! Best day ever!
